Top Quality Cold Pressed Bergamot Essential Oil for Massage Soap

Bergamot oil is cold-pressed from the rind of the fruit of the Citrus bergamia tree, which grows primarily in the Calabria region of southern Italy. It is the key flavoring agent in Earl Grey tea and a classic in perfumery and aromatherapy.

• Aroma: Bright, fresh, and citrusy (like a mix of sweet orange and lemon) but with a unique, delicate floral and spicy undertone. It is both uplifting and soothing.
• Color: Typically a beautiful emerald green to yellowish-green, which is rare among citrus oils.
• Main Chemical Constituents: Its signature scent and effects come from compounds like linalool and linalyl acetate (also found in lavender), and limonene. Most critically, it contains bergapten (furocoumarin), which is phototoxic.
