Extraction

Bergamot essential oil is obtained by cold pressing the fruit's peel and is a clear, intense green liquid (which may darken with age) with a distinctive, sweet, velvety citrus scent. It blends beautifully with the essential oils of chamomile, cypress, coriander, geranium, juniper, lemon, neroli, frankincense, and opoponax.

Affinity

Bergamot essential oil harmonizes well with the essential oils of Chamomile, Cypress, Coriander, Geranium, Juniper, Lemon, Neroli, Frankincense and Opoponax.

Property

Bergamot essential oil, non-toxic, is known in aromatherapy for its refreshing and antidepressant properties, helping to combat anxiety and stress.
It is also effective in treating acne, eczema, insect bites, and cold sores; it is also an effective insect repellent. However, applying this oil to the skin must be done with great caution, as the furocoumarins it contains can be phototoxic following direct exposure to sunlight. Therefore, it is best to dissolve it first in a vegetable oil (olive, almond, or sesame).

Uses

Bergamot essential oil is widely used in perfumery and cosmetics, as a fragrance agent and fixative, as well as in personal hygiene products and tanning lotions.

Botany

Native to tropical Asia, bergamot is now grown primarily in Calabria and the Ivory Coast.
It grows into a small tree about four meters tall with smooth, oval leaves and round, green fruits that turn yellow as they ripen.
Its name comes from the Italian city of Bergamo, where the oil pressed from the fruit's peel was first commercially available.
