Known for its power to alleviate anxiety and foster focus, this essential oil is your go-to solution for mental clarity and serenity.
Hailing from the evergreen citrus trees of Southeast Asia and the Mediterranean, Bergamot is a small, inedible fruit with an aroma that's anything but minor. Its clean, uplifting citrus scent is a beacon of well-being, brightening your day and enhancing your mood. This essential oil isn't just a feast for your olfactory senses; it also moonlights as a natural bug repellent.
Bergamot’s distinctive citrusy aroma has found its way into perfumes and food industries, earning it a cherished spot in the world of aromatherapy. It's the secret ingredient that lends Earl Grey tea its captivating citrus flavor and aroma, and it's a key component in the iconic "4711 Cologne" from 18th-century Germany.
Incorporating Bergamot essential oil into your daily routine is a breeze. Diffuse it with Lavender oil before bedtime for sweet dreams and a restful morning wake-up. Or, add a few drops to your skincare regimen for a refreshing touch. Remember to use it safely by following proper guidelines for essential oil usage.

- Bergamot essential oil is made from the fresh fruit rind and it holds a top-middle note. The first element to hit your nose gives off a citrus bouquet due to its element d-limonene that is sharp and crisp. But the middle note nuances surface, giving off its soft, sweetness that has hints of lemon and pepper. It is also somewhat herbaceous with subtle flower essences. Its warmth exudes positive feelings and a sense of security.
