Lemongrass essential oil can be confused for citronella essential oil and vice versa. A citronella plant, also called a mosquito plant, does resemble its relative, the lemongrass plant. (The lemongrass genus includes more than 50 species of grasses native to tropical Asia and southern India, including Cymbopogon citratus.)
The oils derived from these plants also have similar smells and uses, such as warding off insects, but they are definitely two completely different plants and oils.
