Pleasant, fresh scent.
I put the oil in the diffuser while we were on vacation and a pleasant, fresh scent immediately filled the room.
Even after cooking, citronella quickly absorbs cooking odors and works well against mosquitoes.

Very good, high quality oil.
I use it, for example, as an ingredient in mosquito spray, which has always worked wonderfully so far.
