SCENT OF THE SEASON "Lemon"

Welcome to the installment from THREE Holistic Research Center, where our theme is 'Lemon Essential Oil.'

---

If you're striving to be your true self, want to kick start something new, or simply need a boost to brighten your spirit and maintain a positive mindset, lemon essential oil is the perfect companion. Allow us to introduce you to the uplifting benefits of lemon essential oil.

First off, let's share some fun facts about lemons. Lemons are citrus plants, growing up to around 4 meters tall. The vibrant yellow, oval-shaped fruits that we’re all familiar with are exceptionally sour and rich in vitamin C. Originally from India, lemons are now widely cultivated around the world.

The essential oil is found within the bright peel of the lemon, specifically in the oil sacs (the tiny bumps visible on the surface). Its scent, comprised of components like limonene and citral, has the clear, refreshing sharpness typical of citrus with a lemon-specific sourness and bitterness. This makes it ideal for enhancing concentration or when you need a change of pace.

Lemon essential oil works wonderfully on its own, but it also blends well with a variety of other essential oils, allowing you to enjoy a pleasant fragrance. Consider incorporating it into your daily routine.

Recommended blends for boosting concentration:

〈 Lemon × Rosemary 〉
〈 Lemon × Peppermint 〉

※Please note that lemon essential oil contains furocoumarin compounds, which can cause photosensitivity. Care should be taken to avoid skin exposure. We recommend using furocoumarin-free essential oils for use on the skin.
