Linseed oil. A few drops and wipe straight off. Lemon oil is most likely carcinogenic.
I see you've already got something, but in case you want to augment this with a decent steel strung acoustic....
Lemon oil is marketing guff. It may have a vague wiff of lemon scent but it's really petroleum distillates, yucky stuff.And yeah, don't put linseed oil anywhere near your fingerboard. Very, very fine wire wool and some lemon oil is all you need to clean it up and seal it.

Whatever. A friend of mine is a Luthier of many years experience and one of the UK's leading experts in the restoration of acoustic guitars that also used to do warranty work for Martin. She recommends the use of lemon oil for fretboard cleaning and dressing. You can have it out with her.
Obvious point to make, but if you think about using wire wool on a guitar with pickups, be very careful that wire wool "bits" don't end up attracted to the magnets in the pickups....
Then she is obviously involved in a scam to increase he refret jobs!That's interesting but re Martin's faq on guitar care:
Can I use lemon oil on my fingerboard?
Martin Guitar does not recommend using lemon oil on the fingerboard. The acids in lemon oil break down the finish of your guitar. It may also speed the corrosion of the frets and decrease the life of your strings.
