About this product
The first breath of a cup of Earl Grey, the bright opening of a fine perfume: that is bergamot. Light and green, citrus with a floral heart, fruity and warm, it is the kind of scent that makes a gray afternoon feel encouraged.
This oil is cold-pressed from the rind of organically produced Citrus bergamia in Italy. It is the flavoring of Earl Grey tea and much used by perfumers as a top note, and in aromatherapy it is loved as encouraging and balancing to the spirit. It mixes beautifully with the other citrus oils, geranium and ylang-ylang, and with florals such as rose and neroli; in truth, it is hard to think of an oil it does not blend with.

How to use
Bergamot is a photosensitizer: never apply it to skin that will be exposed to the sun, and keep skin use to a maximum of 0.4% to avoid phototoxicity. Store it dark and refrigerated, and decant a half-full bottle into a smaller, full one to extend its life. The bright opening of the day, kept in a small bottle.
