Lemongrass Room Spray from Bhutan ·, Organic Bhutan

Room spray with the fresh, citrusy scent of lemongrass—light and dry, with no sweet notes. One or two sprays are enough for a room; the scent lingers without being overpowering. Lemongrass also naturally repels insects.

In eastern Bhutan, lemongrass grows wild in the undergrowth of the Chirpine forests. It is harvested by hand: The leaves are cut with sharp knives and handled with care so they do not tear and the oil remains in the leaf. While still fresh, they are sent for steam distillation. Forest user groups and a cooperative in the eastern districts of Mongar, Lhuntse, Trashigang, and Trashiyangtse handle the harvesting and distillation—the majority of whose members are women. For many families in this region, the oil is one of the few regular sources of income.

The essential oil is diluted with water and alcohol derived from natural fermentation—that's all the spray contains. Free of synthetic fragrances, vegan, and packaged in a glass bottle with a spray nozzle.

Directions: Spray once or twice into the air. Do not spray directly onto fabrics or skin.

Ingredients: Water, alcohol (from natural fermentation), lemongrass essential oil (Cymbopogon flexuosus)
