At
times we could all use a little sunshine. Grown in Northern Italy, our
Bergamot essential oil will bring a little drop of zesty happiness to
your day, no matter how gloomy the outlook.
Bergamot is a type of
bitter orange with greenish-yellow skin. Its pulp is too sour to eat, so
this uplifting, fruit yielding plant is grown purely for the extraction
of essential oil from its peel.
Bergamot has been used in
perfumery formulations going back to the sixteenth century. The
refreshing and strong citrus fragrance is also used to flavour Earl Grey
tea.
Mostly used in aromatherapy for its cheering and uplifting
qualities, Bergamot is a versatile oil which can also be used in a host
of beauty blends and products for the home.
Botanical Name:
