Neroli Essential Oil

Description

Neroli Essential Oil (Citrus aurantium var. amara)

The precious bloom of the bitter orange tree.

Our 100% pure neroli essential oil is steam-distilled from the delicate blossoms of the bitter orange tree, Citrus aurantium amara. Intensely floral with soft citrus undertones and an elegant depth, it is one of the most treasured oils in natural perfumery. It is loved for evening rituals, home fragrance and as a refined floral heart note.

Each bottle is made of matte black glass to help protect the oil from light, and comes with a glass pipette dropper for controlled, drop-by-drop use. Choose the 10ml size to try it or the 30ml size for regular use.

Important safety information

• If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, speak to a healthcare professional before use.
• Keep out of reach of children. Do not use on or near the face of babies or young children.
• Take care around pets, particularly cats. Ventilate the room, let animals leave freely when diffusing, and never apply the oil to them.

• If you have a medical condition or take medication, speak to a healthcare professional before use.
• Essential oils are not medicines and are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any condition.

Frequently asked questions

Can I put neroli essential oil on my skin?
Yes, when diluted. Keep it to 1% or less (about 3 drops per 15ml of carrier oil), starting with 1 drop per 15ml if you are unsure. Patch test first and keep it away from the eyes and broken skin.

Is neroli phototoxic like other citrus oils?
Neroli is not known to be phototoxic, unlike some cold-pressed citrus peel oils, because it is distilled from blossoms. It is still a concentrated oil, so dilute it, patch test and avoid the eyes.

What does neroli blend well with?
It pairs beautifully with Bergamot, Sandalwood, Lavender, Petitgrain and Geranium.
