This Neroli Essential Oil is derived from the delicate flowers of the bitter orange tree (Citrus aurantium var. amara), also known as Neroli bigarade. With a captivating aroma reminiscent of bergamot, this oil is produced through careful water distillation, as the fragile blossoms cannot withstand steam distillation. The blossoms are hand-harvested, ensuring that only the finest blooms are selected for this exquisite oil.
Neroli oil is celebrated not only for its enchanting scent but also for its remarkable therapeutic properties. It’s known for its calming effects, helping to alleviate chronic anxiety, depression, fear, and stress. Additionally, it may ease intestinal spasms, colitis, and diarrhoea. With its natural sedative qualities, Neroli is an excellent choice for those struggling with insomnia, heart palpitations, neuralgia, and vertigo. Consider warming it in an oil burner to create a soothing atmosphere in a convalescent’s room.
When applied to the skin, Neroli oil is renowned for its regenerative abilities, promoting the healing of skin cells while helping to prevent unsightly scar tissue. It is effective in achieving smoother skin, combating stretch marks, and reducing the appearance of broken capillaries.
Historically, Neroli oil has a rich heritage, believed to have been utilised by the Romans. In 1680, Anna Maria Orsini, the princess of Nerola, popularised the essence of the bitter orange tree by perfuming her gloves and bath, thus giving the oil its name. Folklore suggests that these fragrant orange blossoms were once used to adorn bridal beds, creating a serene environment for newlyweds.
