Dracocephalum moldavica, also known as Dragonhead, Moldavian Dragonhead, or Moldavian Balm, is a member of the Lamiaceae (formally Labiatae) botanical family.  It is a perennial herb that commonly grows from Eastern Europe to East Asia, that produces beautiful blue to purple flowers.  Historically, the lemon-scented leaves have been used to make tea.  It is also widely grown as a garden ornamental and it is known to attract several species of butterflies, birds, as well as bees.
 
Dragonhead essential oil, having a fresh, herbaceous, and mild lemony scent, is like taking Melissa (Lemon Balm) oil to another level.  It is a beautiful and rare oil that is chemically unique and one of the few oils with high geranyl acetate.  To quote Dr. P. from an Essential Oil University Facebook post, “I find the Dragonhead EO to be like a more refined Melissa oil, indeed they have many components in common, including neral and geranial (the main components in most Melissa), but what the Dragonhead has that the Melissa doesn't is the high level of geranyl acetate, a nice floral/fruity ester, that makes the oil less harsh than melissa and more smooth and rounded. The yield of the Dragonhead, like Melissa, is very small, so it is an expensive oil, but if you like Melissa then I think you will really love this oil.”  Try blending with your choice of citrus and floral oils for an uplifting diffuser blend. 
 
Usage ideas:
Add a few drops of essential oils to a diffuser, cotton round, or a tissue.
