### Lemons in the Ancient World

Lemons were once a luxury. Archaeobotanical work traces citrus from Southeast Asia to the Mediterranean by way of the Levant. The oldest lemon found in Rome dates to around the turn of the first century. The Roman elite kept lemons and citrons for themselves. They prized the fruit for scent, taste, healing and symbolism.

### From Luxury to Everyday Fruit

Muslim growers later carried cultivated citrus across North Africa and Southern Europe. Many citrus names come from Arabic. Sour oranges and limes became commercial crops more than a thousand years after Roman times. Ordinary households could finally enjoy them.

### Using and Storing Your Oil

Add a few drops of this lemon fragrance oil to your own cream or soap base. For a lemon potpourri scent, refresh a dry bowl of petals or peel. Pair it with any citrus fragrance oil for a deeper layered blend. Keep the cap tight and store the bottle away from heat and direct sun. Browse more scents in the [Fragrance Oils collection](https://www.museumize.com/collections/fragrance-oils) or the full [Museumize fragrance collection](https://www.museumize.com/collections/fragrance). Makers of lemon oil for soap making value its clean, sharp top note. A citrus fragrance oil like this one wakes up a sleepy blend. A lemon potpourri scent keeps a room feeling fresh.

Citrus has shaped gardens, kitchens and perfumery around the Mediterranean for over two thousand years. Scent makers still reach for the lemon when a blend needs lift.
