From South American Hills to European Gardens

A leaf so fragrant it earned a place in royal gardens and grandmothers' teacups.

- Native to Argentina, Chile and Peru, Lippia citriodora was brought to Europe by Spanish explorers in the 17th century.

- Long cherished in Mediterranean tradition for its perfumed leaves, used in tisanes, sachets and finger bowls.

- It takes around 100 kilograms of fresh leaves to steam-distill just half a kilogram of precious oil.

SAFETY

Dillution guideline

  • Use at a maximum of 0.9% dilution on skin (approximately 5–6 drops per 30 ml carrier oil) due to citral content.

  • Patch test

Apply a small amount of the diluted blend to the inner forearm and wait 24 hours before broader use.

  • Children

Not recommended for children under 6. For older children, use only in low-dose diffusion under adult supervision.

  • Pregnancy

Avoid during pregnancy and nursing unless advised by a qualified aromatherapist.

  • Pets

Keep away from cats, dogs and birds; citrus-rich oils can be irritating to their respiratory systems.

  • Photosensitivity

Mildly phototoxic — avoid direct sun exposure or UV beds for at least 12 hours after topical application.

  • Ingestion

Do not ingest unless under qualified professional guidance.

  • Storage

Store tightly closed in a cool, dark place, away from heat and direct sunlight. Best within 2 years of opening.
