Melissa Type is a blend of pure essential oils with a strong lemony-citrus aroma. This oil is clear to pale yellow colour.
Melissa is one of the most adulterated and copied essential oils and genuine Melissa oil makes up only a small fraction of the amount that is sold commercially. We also stock a True Melissa oil but, as the cost is so prohibitive, we produce this blend of essential oils to resemble the aroma. The blend includes Lemon, Lemongrass and Citronella among others. It contains no True Melissa.

Directions:
- As its components are oils high in insect-repellent chemicals, Melissa Type is also very good at keeping flying pests at bay. For this, try blending 5 drops of Melissa Type with 2 drops of Cedarwood in a burner or diffuser.
- As this oil is already a blend, it makes an ideal diffusing oil in its own right. However, it complements Cedarwood, Rosemary, Geranium, Lavender, Ylang Ylang or the spice oils. For a refreshing, cleansing aroma, try 5 drops of Melissa Type with 2 drops of Rosemary in a burner or diffuser. For a smoother, more floral aroma, try 2 drops of Geranium with 4 drops of Melissa Type or 3 drops of Lavender with 4 drops of Melissa Type.
Caution:
Avoid use during pregnancy. May irritate sensitive skin.
