Lemongrass Essential Oil 1 L

Bulk Lemongrass Oil for Household Chemicals and Fragrance Manufacturing

A 1 liter bottle of lemongrass essential oil is built for manufacturers who need dependable, uninterrupted supply rather than frequent small reorders. This item belongs to the Essential Oils section, which brings together raw materials for cosmetic, fragrance and chemical production of every scale. Lemongrass oil is steam distilled from a tropical grass grown across Southeast Asia, India and parts of Africa, and it is prized above all for its high citral content, a compound responsible for its sharp lemony character and natural antimicrobial behavior.

Global demand for lemongrass oil is driven mainly by three industries: household chemicals, fragrance manufacturing and body care. In household chemical production, lemongrass is added to air fresheners, surface sprays and insect repellents — mosquitoes and gnats tend to avoid environments with noticeable citral concentration, which makes this oil a common base for indoor and outdoor antimosquito blends, including patio and camping products. In fragrance manufacturing it serves as a top note with a green citrus profile that opens a composition quickly before giving way to heavier base notes. For industrial batching, the oil is typically blended into fragrance concentrates at room temperature, staying below 30-35 degrees Celsius to prevent loss of volatile fractions.

In skin and hair care formulations, lemongrass is valued for oily and combination skin lines as well as scalp care products aimed at reducing excess oil production, while giving the finished product a fresh scent without relying on synthetic fragrance. Recommended dosage in finished cosmetic formulas usually ranges from 0.3 to 1 percent of total mass, while fragrance compositions may use 3 to 5 percent depending on the desired intensity. The oil should be added at the final stage of production, once the base emulsion or carrier has cooled to no more than 40 degrees Celsius, preserving its volatile components.

Candle manufacturing is another significant outlet for lemongrass oil, used both in decorative scented candles and functional outdoor or citronella-style candles designed for warm-season use. Blended with other essential oils, lemongrass behaves differently depending on the pairing: combined with herbal and woody notes such as hyssop essential oil, it produces fresh spa-oriented blends, while paired with softer floral-honey notes like melissa essential oil it creates balanced diffuser and fine fragrance accords. Contrasting warm-sweet pairings are also common, for instance with vanilla essential oil, a combination frequently used in niche perfumery and scented candle lines.

At 1 liter, this oil suits conveyor-line and semi-industrial production — cosmetic manufacturing lines, household chemical workshops and candle studios running in continuous batches. Store the oil in a tightly sealed dark glass or metal container away from direct sunlight and heat sources, at a temperature not exceeding 25 degrees Celsius, to keep its active compounds stable for the full shelf life. Once opened, transferring part of the volume into a smaller container helps limit oxygen exposure to the remaining oil.

Outdoor Antimosquito Candle Wax Blend

Soy wax 500 g

Coconut wax 200 g

Lemongrass essential oil 25 ml

Hyssop essential oil 5 ml

Wooden wick 1 piece

Melt the soy and coconut waxes together in a double boiler until fully liquid, then remove from heat and let the mixture cool to about 60 degrees Celsius before adding both essential oils. Stir gently but thoroughly to distribute the oils evenly, then pour the blend into a heat-resistant container fitted with the wooden wick, holding it steady until the wax begins to set. Allow the candle to cure for at least 24 hours before lighting for outdoor or patio use.
