Description: The Lemon tree was originally a small thorny evergreen tree native to India. It is now common in Southern Europe, Florida, and California. 5-Fold citrus essential oils are more concentrated than the regular citrus essential oils. Through extended distillation, terpenes are removed from the oil rendering more suitable for cosmetic applications.
