These are familiar fragrances to most of us and remind us of cleaning the house on Saturday mornings as they’re often used in cleaning products.

Popular citrus essential oils include lemon, bergamot, grapefruit, and lemongrass.

The oils in this scent family offer both physical and mental health benefits to those who use them. They can help reduce or balance stress and anxiety, promote energy, and create a cleansing sensation while also decreasing blood pressure.
