Thank you for such a quick response.

The smell, is quite heady and amazing, it reminds me of an aromatherapy oil, it is very very pleasant.

 

I will try and get home early enough tomorrow to take a close up picture of the branches and bark.

The aroma is definitely not lemony in the slightest, (I intensely dislike citronella), when we split a section that had been cut, the wood split easily, not fibrous and was almost a creamy white, and so smooth you could swear somebody had spent hours moulding the wood into a gentle curve. No sticky resin either, and it had only been cut a few days.
