## About
Winter light, a blood orange cut open on the board, its perfume rising sharp and sweet from the peel. This oil brings the same sparkle into a room when the days are short.Blood Orange oil is cold-pressed from the rind of Citrus sinensis, conventionally farmed, from France. It is more intensely aromatic than the sweet orange most of us know, and it adds a sparkling citrus note to any blend. In use it is very much like Sweet Orange, its gentler cousin, only with more voice: a bright, cheering scent for the short days of the year.DetailsBotanical name: Citrus sinensisPlant part: rind, conventionally farmedMethod: cold pressedOrigin: FranceShelf life: about 1 to 2 years after openingHow to useAdd a few drops to the diffuser on a slow morning, or let it brighten a blend that feels heavy.
