The downside is that it is not balanced, in my opinion, too much citronella scent and little room for eucalyptus, when I was looking for eucalyptus to be the protagonist. - **5,0/5** — Anonymous (2025-08-30) It is a good anti-inflammatory. - **5,0/5** — Anonymous (2025-06-06): Very good Citrus scent, highly recommended for use in saunas.. intense, refreshing, and long-lasting - **5,0/5** — Anonymous (2024-07-02) A delicious, comforting lemony aroma. - **5,0/5** — Anonymous (2024-06-07) I've finally done it!
