Our Story

Lemon Myrtle Essential Oil is a second-generation, family-run farm and distillery in Meerschaum Vale, NSW. The journey began in 1992 with Gary’s passion for the rainforest and Australia’s native botanicals. Among them, the medicinal benefits and uplifting aroma of Lemon Myrtle stood out

From there, Gary, Sue and Sue’s parents, became pioneers in Lemon Myrtle cultivation in Australia. Soon after, they founded Lemon Myrtle Fragrances, bringing this remarkable native into everyday homes

Following Gary’s early onset dementia diagnosis in 2020, he entrusted the family legacy to his son Jayden and daughter-in-law Sheree in 2023. Today, they carry forward his passion and dedication, continuing to share this beautiful Australian native and all it has to offer with the world.

Whether it's for cleaning, diffusing, cooking, skincare or more, we're excited for you to experience this beautiful botanical from our farm to your family.
