Does Lemon Scented Tea Tree Oil contain lemon oil?
✓ 100% pure tea tree oil
Single-ingredient essential oil extracted from lemon-scented tea tree leaves. No carrier oils, no blends, no dilution. Produced in Australia from locally grown plant material.
✓ Nothing added
No lemon essential oil, no added fragrance, no scent boosters, no synthetic fragrances. The aroma is already present in the plant material used during extraction.
Why does Lemon Scented Tea Tree Oil smell like lemon?
✓ The aroma comes from the plant
The lemon-scented tea tree is a variety of tea tree whose leaves contain aroma compounds that give off a fresh citrus scent. Crush a leaf in your hand and you'd smell lemon straight from the plant.
✓ Cold pressed in Australia
Cold press extraction takes the essential oil from the plant material without adding any chemicals. The process keeps the aroma compounds exactly as they exist in the leaves. Lemon Scented Tea Tree Oil is produced in Australia from locally grown plant material.
What is Lemon Scented Tea Tree Oil best used for?
✓ Best spots
2 to 3 drops with Dishwashing Liquid for a fresh scent while washing up. A few drops in the toilet bowl after a Loo Cleaner Tablet dissolves. Also fine in the Atomiser Spray Bottle at 3 drops max.
⚠ Not in Foaming Spray Bottle
Despite not being true lemon oil, Lemon Scented Tea Tree Oil shares some of the aroma compounds that give citrus oils their scent. Those same compounds accelerate wear on the Foaming Spray Bottle mechanism, so keep it out of the foamer. Use Eucalyptus Oil there instead.
For reference, the three essential oils in the range:
Fresh, bright, clean. Safe in the Foaming Spray Bottle.
Zesty, uplifting. Great in dish and loo. Not for foamers.
A blended oil. Soft, soothing, floral. Popular for laundry.
100% pure, cold pressed, produced in Australia. No additives.
The natural pairing for Lemon Scented Tea Tree Oil. Add 2 to 3 drops to your Dish Pump for fresh scent while washing up.
