Description of Eucalyptus Citriodora Chinese

Originally an exclusive product of Australia, Eucalyptus Citriodora oil has since become a staple product of a variety of African, South American, and Asian countries, though the oil is most commonly produced by Brazil and China. Sometimes referred to as "Lemon-scented Gum Tree" or "Spotted Gum Tree," the Corymbia citriodora tree grows tall and narrow, with a thin bark that constantly sheds white and pink flakes. Eucalyptus Citriodora oil has played a pivotal role in the perfumery industry for decades, as the leaves of this tree contain an unparalleled source of natural citronellal. This imparts Eucalyptus Citriodora oil with a strong and fresh aroma, alongside a sweet and slightly balsamic drydown. The high citronellal content also acts as a natural pesticide, repelling mosquitos and other harmful or annoying insects.

Aroma & Flavor of Eucalyptus Citriodora Chinese

Unlike the more common Eucalyptus Globulu, the oil of the Eucalyptus Citriodora tree is dominated by its 75% concentration of Citronellal, which is also found in citronella grass. This imparts a fresh and lemon-like aroma, with a sweet and slightly balsamic drydown.
