Discover Neroli Essential Oil

Did you know there are 3 oils derived from the bitter orange tree (Citrus x aurantium), also known as the Seville orange?

Neroli essential oil is derived from the flowers (orange blossoms), the fruit peel produces bitter orange essential oil and Petitgrain oil comes from the leaves and twigs.

Neroli is still a rare and precious floral oil despite this because it takes a lot of labour to produce a low yield. Every tiny neroli blossom must be hand picked during the correct time of the flowering cycle and quickly steam distilled. It takes 40 pounds of freshly picked blossoms to create one 15 mL bottle of pure Neroli essential oil.

Neroli oil instills relaxation, uplifts mood, reduces feelings of anxiousness, and promotes overall well-being.

Helpful during times of stress, anxiousness, or discouragement, Neroli offers emotionally calming benefits.


Usage Tips:

  • Apply topically to your skin help soothe the skin and to reduce the appearance of blemishes.
  • Combine Neroli Touch with Lavender, Ylang Ylang, and Marjoram essential oils for a relaxing and aromatic massage experience.
  • Apply to pulse points throughout the day to uplift your mood.
  • Use when you are feeling anxious or stressed.
  • Neroli can be worn as a perfume to encourage creativity and self-expression.
  • Wearing Neroli can encourages feelings of love and romance. 

What Does Neroli Oil Smell Like?

Its evocative aroma has citrus and floral notes.

Like Rose, Neroli is considered a complete and well-balanced fragrance by itself. It also blends well with other oils, including floral, wood, and citrus oils.

Discover Lemon Eucalyptus Essential Oil

Did you know Lemon Eucalyptus is a tall tree native to northern Australia?

Its flowers make it a great plant to grow to encourage bees and butterflies.

Like its name suggests, Lemon Eucalyptus essential oil is derived from a blue gum eucalypti plant which is also known as the lemon scented gum tree as well as the blue spotted gum tree! 

Although it is known as Lemon Eucalyptus and it has a lemony aroma, it is not a citrus oil.

The oil is known for its refreshing aroma that helps create an invigorating environment. 

Lemon Eucalyptus oil is high in cleansing citronellal and citronellol, making this essential oil ideal for surface and skin cleansing. 

Lemon Eucalyptus can be used to clear and refresh the air.
