Lemon Myrtle Hydrosol

Backhousia citriodora

Studied Properties

With a high citral content, Lemon Myrtle has a lovely, unique lemony aroma and sedative, anti-viral, antibacterial and anti-fungal properties.

Common Uses

Hydrosols are a gentler product than the essential oil and can often be used directly on the skin without further dilution and can be used in place of water in creating natural fragrances, lotions, creams, facial toners and other skin care products.

With a strong, uplifting, lemony aroma Lemon Myrtle is a favourite in diffusers and burners and also a favourite for use in soaps, hand sanitizers, body lotions, shower gels, shampoos, household cleaning products and more.

With a  wonderful, uplifting, refreshing lemon aroma, Lemon Myrtle is one of Australia’s newest and most exciting Hydrosols. Hydrosol is the aromatic water that is produced during the distilling process. It has similar therapeutic properties to the essential oils, but is far less concentrated. These aromatic products possess a similar scent to their oil counterpart and the plant matter used in the distillation process imparts the hydrosol with the water-soluble aromatic and therapeutic properties of the plant.
