New Lemon Eucalyptus (Eucalyptus citriodora) 10ml Ladrome

Lemon Eucalyptus is a thin tree with a mottled bark, whose young leaves are rounded and adult leaves long and thin. This tree can reach 50m and can be found mostly in the forests and on hillsides. It is native from the dry regions of Australian Queensland, but it is also cultivated in South and West Africa, in India, Vietnam and Brazil. Every part of the tree smells like lemon. Its oil is colourless to pale yellow; its scent strongly resembles that of citronella, with herbal and rose notes.
