Neroli Oil is produced from the blossoms of the bitter orange tree (Citrus aurantium var. Amara), also known as Neroli bigarade, and smells like bergamot. The blossoms are hand-picked and the oil is produced by water distillation as the blossoms are too fragile for steam distillation. This is one of the most popular essential oils for its wonderful scent and therapeutic properties.

Neroli Essential Oil is very calming and is said to relieve chronic anxiety, depression, fear, depression, shock and stress. It is believed to also calm intestinal spasms, colitis and diarrhoea. Due to its sedative property, it is good for insomnia, people with palpitations, neuralgia and vertigo. It is good to warm a little in an oil burner in a convalescent's room. On the skin, Neroli oil is said to help regenerate skin cells and is helpful to prevent ugly scar tissue, promote smoother skin, fight stretch marks and broken capillaries.

Neroli Oil is believed to have been used by the Romans. In 1680, Anna Maria Orsini, princess of Nerola, used the essence from the bitter orange tree to perfume her gloves and her bath, thereby creating a new fashionable scent. From this time, the essential oil became known as Neroli after her. Folk tales say that these orange blossoms were used to decorate bridal beds to help relax newlyweds for bed. The oil is expensive to produce, and great care is taken as the blossoms must be plucked just as they open.
