Essential oil from Philippine Cymbopogon citratus (DC) Stapf collected in Nagcarlan, Laguna [Philippines] was obtained from the airdried leaves by hydrodistillation for two hours, and dried using anhydrous sodium sulfate. The oil obtained was then subjected to gas chromatographic [GC] analysis. Analysis was done by programming the oven temperature from 70 deg C - 180 deg C at 4 deg C/min for 15 minutes. Components were identified by a peak enrichment method using standard compounds and by comparing GC retention values with those of the standard compounds. Citral was identified as the main component with 69.39 percent concentration. Geraniol, myrcene, alpha- and Beta-pinene, ethyl laurate, 1,8-cineole, limonene, phellandrene, methyl heptenone, citronellal, linalool, caryophyllene, menthol, terpineol and citronellol were the other constituents detected
