Lemongrass Oil

Indian Export Grade Essential Oil for Fragrance, Flavour & Wellness Botanical Source: Cymbopogon flexuosus — Origin: India — Citral Content: Min. 75% GMP CertifiedISO 9001COA with Every BatchGC-MS AvailableMOQ: 25 kg India is the world's largest producer of lemongrass oil, and there is a reason that global fragrance houses, FMCG manufacturers, and natural product companies continue to source the vast majority of their requirements from this country.

The East Indian variety — Cymbopogon flexuosus — is prized for its high citral content, which typically ranges between 75% and 85% in good-quality oil. Citral is not just responsible for the bright, lemony odour of lemongrass oil; it is also a commercially significant starting material used in the synthesis of ionones and vitamin A precursors. That dual role as a fragrance ingredient and a synthetic chemistry input keeps demand for quality Indian lemongrass oil consistently strong.

At Zentish Exim, our lemongrass oil is steam-distilled from fresh Cymbopogon flexuosus harvested from cultivation zones across Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand. We offer both first distillation oil (preferred by fragrance and food-grade buyers) and redistilled grades for applications requiring higher citral concentration. Each shipment is tested for specific gravity, refractive index, optical rotation, and citral content before release.
