Bergamot Essential Oil is a 100% pure, natural oil extracted via cold pressing from the peel of the bergamot fruit (Citrus aurantium bergamia). Celebrated for its bright, citrus-sweet aroma with subtle floral undertones, this oil has long been a staple in fine perfumery, often featured in eau de cologne blends.
Blending beautifully with floral, citrus, and woody notes, it’s an ideal foundation for crafting custom perfumes, massage blends, soaps, and cosmetic formulations. Its lively fragrance brings brightness and zest—perfect for those who favor fresh, citrus-rich scent profiles.
