Acacia citriodora is a spreading, sticky, lemon-scented, glabrous, flat-topped shrub with many stems that typically grows to a height of 0.5–2 m (1 ft 8 in – 6 ft 7 in) and has fissured, greyish brown bark. Its branchlets are terete and obscurely ribbed. The phyllodes are narrowly oblong to linear, sometimes in pairs in axils, mostly 20–40 mm (0.79–1.57 in) long and 2–4 mm (0.079–0.157 in) wide, the tip coarsely to sharply pointed, sometimes with a gland near the base of the phyllodes. The flowers are golden yellow and borne in spikes 9–25 mm (0.35–0.98 in) long on a peduncle 15–30 mm (0.59–1.18 in) long. Flowering has been recorded between May and October, and the pods are erected, linear and tapered but flat-sided, 25–50 mm (0.98–1.97 in) long, 3–5 mm (0.12–0.20 in) wide and thick and pale-coloured. The seeds are oblong, brown or olive brown, 3.2–5 mm (0.13–0.20 in) long.
