Lemon verbena essential oil is steam-distilled from the slender leaves of Aloysia citrodora, a shrub prized in old French and Spanish gardens. Sparkling, sweet, and lemony, its aroma is smoother and less sharp than lemon peel, softened by a delicate herbal-floral undertone.
Rare, small-batch yield the slender leaves of Aloysia citrodora produce very little oil, which is why this lemon verbena is prized among perfumers.
Verified pure and undiluted every bottle is 100% pure lemon verbena oil, matched to its published Certificate of Analysis.

Shelf Life & Storage
Citrus oils like this one drift and fade faster than woods or resins, so plan to use it within about 1 to 2 years of opening. Keep the cap tight, store the bottle upright in a dim cupboard, and refrigerate if you want the top notes to last longest.

Lemon verbena essential oil is a concentrated botanical material, not a finished skincare product. For skin use, dilute it at 0.5% to 2% in a carrier oil, and always patch test first.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this lemon verbena oil really 100% pure? ▾
Yes. Every bottle of our lemon verbena essential oil is bottled 100% pure and undiluted, with nothing added. You can review the results for yourself in our published Certificate of Analysis before you buy.
How is lemon verbena oil different from lemon oil or lemongrass oil? ▾
Lemon verbena is distilled from the leaves of Aloysia citrodora, a different plant entirely from lemon peel or lemongrass. Its aroma is sparkling and sweet, but softer and more refined than either, with a delicate herbal-floral heart that neither lemon nor lemongrass oil shares.
What does lemon verbena essential oil smell like, and what does it blend with? ▾
It smells sparkling, sweet, and lemony, smoother than lemon peel oil, with a soft herbal-floral undertone. It blends gracefully with neroli, lavender, geranium, bergamot, petitgrain, and light woods like cedarwood, bridging citrus and floral character in a single note.
How should I dilute lemon verbena oil for skin use? ▾
Dilute lemon verbena essential oil at 0.5% to 2% in a carrier oil before applying to skin, and always patch test on a small area first. It is a concentrated citrus oil, so a little goes a long way in lotions or massage blends.
What sizes does lemon verbena essential oil come in? ▾
We offer ten sizes, from a 0.5 oz bottle for sampling up through 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16 oz, and bulk sizes of 5, 25, 100, and 400 lbs for formulators, makers, and wholesale buyers.
Does lemon verbena oil cost less per ounce in larger sizes? ▾
Yes. Per-ounce cost falls steadily as size increases, since bulk packaging and handling cost less per unit. Our largest 400 lb size works out to less than half the per-ounce price of the smallest 0.5 oz bottle, which rewards buyers who purchase in volume.
Do bulk orders include lab documentation? ▾
Yes, every size we sell, from the smallest bottle to a 400 lb drum, is covered by the same published Certificate of Analysis. If you need anything further for your records, contact us before placing your order.
Which size of lemon verbena oil should I choose? ▾
A 0.5 or 1 oz bottle suits sampling the aroma or a first perfume project. Home users making lotions or candles regularly usually settle on 2 to 8 oz. Makers and resellers working at volume should look to the 5 lb and larger sizes.
How fast does lemon verbena essential oil ship? ▾
Orders ship within 1 to 2 business days. Bulk sizes of 5 lbs and up may need extra handling time before they leave our facility. Checkout for every size runs through our Shopify store, so you can track your order the same way each time.
Why is lemon verbena essential oil more expensive than other citrus oils? ▾
The leaves of Aloysia citrodora yield very little oil during distillation, which makes lemon verbena naturally scarcer and pricier than lemon or orange oil. That same low yield is part of why perfumers have prized it since the eighteenth century.
