Made in Lyall Bay

Natural scents for outdoor evenings


Kiwi summers are made for being outside - right up until the bugs arrive. Our Insect & Outdoors range gathers the natural aromatherapy oils long associated with warm evenings on the deck: citronella, lemongrass, eucalyptus and peppermint, the fresh, zesty scents that make outdoor spaces more pleasant to sit in.

Set the scene however you like. Run citronella or a fresh outdoor blend through an oil diffuser on a covered patio, or keep the scents close by while you're out in the garden. Our balanced essential oil blends pair these oils for you, and our single essential oils let you build your own summer combination.

A note for honesty: these are aromatherapy products chosen for their fresh outdoor scent, not registered insect repellents, so pair them with proper protection where you need it. Everything is handmade in small batches in our Wellington studio, 100% vegan and cruelty-free - tested on Shannon first, never on animals. Rest, relax, refresh.

Yes! Everything is handcrafted in small batches in our studio in Lyall Bay, Wellington. It's a genuine Kiwi maker business, not drop-shipped or mass-produced, and every product is 100% vegan and cruelty-free. Tested on Shannon first, never on animals.
What's your returns policy?
We accept returns within 30 days on unopened items in their original condition - just get in touch and we'll sort it.
