Lemon Essential Oil
Couldn't load pickup availability
Lemon essential oil imported from Italy is cold-pressed to preserve its authentic, original aroma. It has the distinctive scent of the citrus family with a soft sweet undertone. The fragrance of cold-pressed Lemon oil is remarkably true to nature—just like sniffing freshly picked lemons at the start of summer. Its scent is fresh, vibrant, and radiant like golden sunshine.
This aroma helps you stay alert and focused while reducing anxiety and fighting depression. It can be used for direct diffusion, blended into perfumes, or diluted with a carrier oil (in appropriate ratios) for skincare—to prevent acne and improve skin pigmentation.

Blending
Lemon essential oil is commonly used in Eau Fraîche and Eau de Cologne fragrances for its refreshing, clean, and energizing properties. When blended with other citrus oils, it enhances brightness and liveliness in the scent. It also pairs harmoniously with aquatic and fruity notes, creating a light and soothing fragrance. When combined with floral and woody accords, it becomes crisp and airy, reminiscent of clear summer skies.
Aromatherapy
Lemon essential oil is also used to relieve colds, sore throats, and nasal congestion. Its scent can help ease anxiety, combat depression, and reduce symptoms of morning sickness during pregnancy. It also supports skincare by treating and preventing acne, relieving pain, promoting wound healing, acting as an antifungal, boosting alertness, and enhancing concentration. Note: It should always be diluted with at least 50% carrier oil before applying to the skin.

Frequently asked questions
Can I get a sample?
Scent does not offer free samples of its high-quality products. However, you can purchase 10ml sample at a special discounted price compared to the market price.
Are the prices on the website inclusive of VAT?
The listed prices do not include the 8% VAT.
Does Scent have a store where I can try the products?
You can visit Scent's showroom in Ho Chi Minh City to explore fragrances and experience the products firsthand.
However, with the aim of becoming an online provider of fragrance products in Vietnam and Southeast Asia, Scent does not open additional branches. This approach helps optimize costs and allows us to offer you high-quality products at the best prices in the market.
Can essential oils be applied directly to the skin?
Many essential oils need to be diluted before being applied to the skin; otherwise, their high concentration may cause irritation.
Can pregnant women use essential oils?
Pregnant and breastfeeding women should consult a healthcare professional before using essential oils, as they can affect hormones and the impact on the baby during development is not well understood.
What is the difference between natural essential oils and synthetic fragrances?
Essential oils are extracted from parts of plants, are entirely natural, and have therapeutic properties. In contrast, synthetic fragrances are created in a lab and contain artificial components.
How can I ensure that the essential oil is pure?
Scent.vn works directly with reputable global partners, inspecting their facilities and sourcing regions to ensure authenticity. We also conduct GCMS tests on each product to verify its components and quality.
How should essential oils be stored after purchase?
You should store essential oils in aluminum or dark glass bottles, away from sunlight, and at a temperature between 0 to 20℃.
Can I become a distributor of essential oils?
Scent.vn focuses on direct sales to maintain quality control and therefore does not offer a distributor program for this product line. However, you can purchase essential oils in bulk from Scent.vn and sell them under your own brand.
