Candybee Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 (edited) lemon eucalyptus and tea tree lemon? Are these the same oils or are they different? I have been using lemon eucalyptus in a bug spray recipe because I read it is high in citronol. But I just recently read the other two are also great mosquito repellents. So I am a little confused if they are the same, similar, or completely different. Especially as I can't find all 3 at one supplier to read/research about and comparison shop.

Gsmakinsoap Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 I think you can find all three at New Directions Aromatics. And I believe they're all different. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonstar Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 I too believe they are different. i once wanted to get lemon balm but didnt know it was called Melissa - then I saw the price and thought WTH ???? Insanely expensive. I've been wanting to try the lemon eucalyptus though 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted September 29, 2016 Author Share Posted September 29, 2016 Thanks. I keep forgetting about New Directions Aromatics... I must not have it bookmarked. Moonstar I get my Lemon Eucalyptus from The Chemistry Store. I think I saw the lemon myrtle at Eden Botanicals... but not sure I am remembering correctly. Anyway I am pleased with how well the lemon eucalyptus is working and my EO bug blend smells so fresh and lemony I get compliments on it all the time! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonstar Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 I've been wanting to make a bug spray. I want to make an all natural one, which I'm assuming most of the small batch made ones are. NDA has great prices on many items. You can't beat the price on their clays - fruit powders seaweed powder & I love their lemon & coffee butters !
