Botanical Background

Lemongrass is a tall, perennial grass with a subtle lemony flavor, widely used in Asian cuisine—from soups and teas to seafood and curries. Of the two main types—East Indian (Cymbopogon flexuosus) and West Indian (Cymbopogon citratus)—East Indian Lemongrass is favored in perfumery due to its superior solubility in alcohol and its intense aromatic profile.
