The same repellent logic as our citronella set, with cinnamon leaf in place of citronella — a warmer, spicier blend that suits indoor rooms better than a garden. Four 15 ml bottles: lemon eucalyptus, lemon, cinnamon leaf and lemongrass, DEET-free and undiluted, for sprays, diffusers and diluted skin blends.

What’s in this set

Oil Botanical name Extraction Plant part Size
Lemon Eucalyptus Eucalyptus citriodora Steam distilled Leaves 15 ml
Lemon Citrus limon Cold pressed Fresh fruit peel 15 ml
Cinnamon Leaf Cinnamomum verum Steam distilled Leaves 15 ml
Lemongrass Cymbopogon citratus Steam distilled Leaves 15 ml

What each one brings

  • Lemon Eucalyptus (Eucalyptus citriodora) — Lemony and camphorous — a different species from common eucalyptus. Citriodora is the one traditionally used in natural repellent blends rather than in steam.
  • Lemon (Citrus limon) — Clean, sharp and instantly recognisable. The kitchen and living-room oil. Cold-pressed citrus is photosensitising, so keep it off skin that will see sunlight.
  • Cinnamon Leaf (Cinnamomum verum) — Spicy and warming. This is leaf oil, not bark — softer and far gentler on skin than cinnamon bark, though still strong enough to need careful dilution.
  • Lemongrass (Cymbopogon citratus) — Bright, grassy citrus. A staple of Indian home sprays and mop water, and traditionally used outdoors as a natural insect deterrent.

How to use

Room spray. In 100 ml: 25 drops total — go light on the cinnamon leaf, 3 to 4 drops is plenty — with 10 ml witch hazel or alcohol, topped up with water.

Diffuser. 5–8 drops. Three lemongrass to one cinnamon leaf is the balance most people prefer.

Skin blend for adults. 2% in a carrier oil, and cinnamon leaf at no more than a quarter of that. It is the most irritating of the four on skin.

Cupboards and corners. 2–3 drops on a cotton pad, replaced weekly.

Dilution guide

Use Dilution Drops per 10 ml carrier oil

Safety & storage

  • Never apply undiluted essential oil to skin. Dilute in a carrier oil first.
  • Patch test on the inner forearm and wait 24 hours before wider use.
  • Not to be taken internally. Keep away from eyes and mucous membranes.
  • Keep out of reach of children and pets. Consult a doctor if pregnant, nursing or under medical care.
  • Store upright in the closed amber bottle, away from sunlight and heat. Flammable — keep away from open flame.

Frequently asked questions

How is this different from the citronella set?

One bottle: cinnamon leaf instead of citronella. Cinnamon leaf is warmer and spicier and reads better indoors; citronella is sharper and is the more traditional outdoor choice.

Which of the four needs the most care on skin?

Cinnamon leaf, by a distance. Keep it to a quarter of any skin blend and never use it neat. Cold-pressed lemon is the other one to watch — it is photosensitising.

How do I turn these into a spray?

In a 100 ml spray bottle: 20–30 drops total of essential oil, 10 ml of alcohol or witch hazel to disperse it, topped up with water. Shake before every use — oil and water separate.

How long does a natural repellent last?

Plant oils evaporate faster than synthetic actives, so reapply every 1–2 hours outdoors. We do not claim a protection duration or an effectiveness percentage — if you are in a high-risk area for mosquito-borne illness, use a tested repellent.

Is it safe for children?

Not for infants. For children over two, halve the dilution and keep it off hands and faces. Ask your paediatrician first — and never apply undiluted oil to a child's skin.

Can I use these in a diffuser instead of on skin?

Yes, and for indoor evenings it is the easier option. 5–8 drops in the water tank of an ultrasonic diffuser scents a normal-sized room.
