Citronella \u0026amp; Lemongrass isn't just about smelling lovely (though it absolutely does) — it's about helping keep those pesky bugs at bay during summer months. This is 100% pure essential oil, plus we've added Citrepel, a naturally derived insect repellent that actually works.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHere's the thing: lots of citronella products smell like citronella but don't actually contain the active ingredients that repel insects. Ours does. So you're getting the authentic lemony-fresh scent of real citronella and lemongrass essential oils, plus the actual bug-deterring benefits. It's functional \u003cem\u003eand\u003c\/em\u003e gorgeous.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eScent Profile\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTop Notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Citronella, eucalyptus, lime\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeart Notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lemongrass, litsea cubeba, citronella\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBase Notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Orange blossom, honey\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe scent is bright, fresh, and properly lemony with that distinctive herbal character — think sunshine on oriental gardens, a breeze through lemon trees. The eucalyptus and lime give it a clean, zesty opening, while the lemongrass and litsea cubeba add earthy, citrusy depth. Then there's a subtle sweetness from the orange blossom and honey base that stops it being too sharp. It's uplifting, cheerful, and has that slight edge that insects really don't appreciate (but you will).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e100% Essential Oil + Citrepel\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is where we go beyond standard citronella products. You're getting a blend of pure essential oils — citronella, lemongrass, litsea cubeba, pine, and eucalyptus — no fragrance oils, just the real deal. Then we've added Citrepel, which is a UK-produced, naturally derived insect repellent that's certified by ECOCERT and registered under the Biocidal Products Directive. It's high in PMD, a powerful active ingredient that's effective against a broad spectrum of insects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThat means this Wax Pop contains the actual active ingredients that can help deter insects, rather than just smelling like citronella without doing the job. It's the difference between a product that smells the part and one that actually performs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat to Expect\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWax:\u003c\/strong\u003e My signature soy-paraffin blend (I use a blend because it performs better and gives you a stronger scent throw — pure soy just couldn't deliver the same results)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFragrance:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100% pure essential oils (citronella, lemongrass, litsea cubeba, pine, eucalyptus) plus Citrepel natural insect repellent\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGlitter:\u003c\/strong\u003e Biodegradable plant-based glitter\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHand-poured:\u003c\/strong\u003e In small batches, right here\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackaging:\u003c\/strong\u003e Recyclable wrapper\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eBest For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSampling before committing to the full-size version (subject to availability)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGardens, patios, and conservatories during summer months\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutdoor entertaining when you want to deter mosquitoes and midges\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCamping trips (if you've got a portable warmer)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAny space where insects are a nuisance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCreating a fresh, summery atmosphere indoors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnyone who wants natural insect deterrent rather than chemical sprays\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy You'll Love It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHonestly? Because it actually works. I'm not about making wild claims, but when you've got both pure essential oils and Citrepel in there, you're getting the real insect-repelling properties of citronella — not just the scent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePlus, it smells genuinely lovely. That fresh, lemony, herbal character is perfect for summer — it makes everything feel bright and outdoor-y. It's particularly brilliant for those evenings sat outside when the midges start appearing. Pop it in your warmer, and it can genuinely help keep them at arm's length while making everything smell gorgeous. That's what I call multitasking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Wax Pop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57005112918391,"sku":"WAX-EO-CITLEM-POP","price":2.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0981\/4713\/9959\/files\/51425156-5BC1-492A-AC21-5A50B59022F5.jpg?v=1776090274","url":"https:\/\/waxpop.shop\/products\/citronella-lemongrass-essential-oil-wax-melt-pop","provider":"Wax Pop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
