The citrus bergamia tree grows natively in Italy and has a fruit similar to both the lime and grapefruit. Bergamot Essential Oil has been prized for hundreds of years for its use in perfumery. Our Bergamot Essential Oil is cold-pressed from unprocessed peel of the Italian bergamot.
 
Common Use: Bergamot has a bright, uplifting scent and is great to brighten any mood. Our Bergamot Oil can also be applied topically to soothe dry skin. Diffuse or apply in 2-5% dilution.
 
Our Bergamot Essential Oil is bergaptene-free, which means that the components that cause photosensitivity have been removed. Bergaptene can cause severe burning when applied topically and followed by sun exposure.
 
Aromatic Scent: the aroma is basically citrus, yet fruity and sweet with a warm spicy floral quality, and is reminiscent of Neroli and Lavender Oils.
 
Cautions: may cause sensitivity in some individuals. Avoid use during pregnancy.
