Neroli Essential Oil

Neroli Essential Oil

Citrus aurantium var. Amara

Neroli is steam distilled from the blossoms of the bitter orange tree, Citrus aurantium var. Amara. Ours has come from Egypt, Morocco, and Tunisia, from certified organic and wildcrafted flowers.

The chemistry leads with linalool, typically 29-45% in our batches, which is why monoterpenols make up close to half the oil. There's d-limonene too (usually 8-23%), some beta-pinene (around 4-12%), and linalyl acetate in most batches. This is the profile Neroli is loved for. It's calming for the nervous system, and it inspires feelings of emotional contentment and balance. A single drop goes a long way when you want to slow down and destress.

Every batch we bring in is independently GC-MS tested, and the full report for each one lives right here on this page.
