Lemon Essential Oil - Expressed

Cold-pressed from the fresh peel of Citrus limon, expressed lemon essential oil captures the bright, sharp, and intensely fresh citrus aroma of the whole fruit. As a cold-expressed oil, it retains the full natural complexity of the lemon peel, making it the preferred grade for applications where aroma authenticity is critical.
