Neroli Oil








Anne Marie Orsini, duchess of Bracciano and princess of Nerola, Italy Neroli oil comes from a plant that has a similar scent as bergamot. It’s produced from the flowers of the bitter orange tree.

Anne Marie Orsini, duchess of Bracciano and princess of Nerola, Italy, introduced the fragrance of the bitter orange tree and used the scent wherever she could - on her gloves, stationary, scarves, and in her bath. Since then, the name Neroli has been used to describe the essence.

In Madrid, the prostitutes also used Neroli as a scent, so they would be recognized by its aroma.

The flower blossoms were worn as a bridal headdress and carried as a bouquet, symbolizing purity and virginity.

This oil is considered to have a soothing effect on the nervous system and traditionally has been used to relieve tension and anxiety, and also to increase circulation.

To make one pound of essential oil it takes 1,000 pounds of blossoms.
