Clean, citrus-bright, and softly invigorating, Lemongrass (Cymbopogon citratus) is the scent of awakening, fresh as sunlight, steady as breath. Its gentle citrus notes clear mental fog and awaken focus, while its grounding warmth restores balance to the body’s rhythm.

At Purely, lemongrass shines across the Morning Ritual Collection, starring in both Sunrise Clarity™ (Jammy Berry Lane) and Radiant Awakening™ (Tropical Gold Lane). It ties together fruit and spice, energy and stillness, the herb that turns light into movement.

Lemongrass has been used for centuries in Ayurvedic and Southeast Asian traditions, valued as both medicine and food. In folk practices, it was brewed as a tea to reduce fever and restore vitality, while its oil was used to protect and purify the home. A tall perennial grass with long, slender leaves and aromatic stalks, Lemongrass thrives in tropical climates where sunlight fuels its citrus fragrance. At Purely, we celebrate it as a bright note in our Morning Ritual teas, bringing clarity and balance to the day’s first cup.
