An uplifting and euphoric oil with a fresh scent and excellent anti-bacterial properties
Organic Bergamot Essential Oil
The Bergamot tree is a native of Southern Italy and produces small inedible (due to the sourness) fruits. The fruits ripen from Green to Yellow. Bergamot is seen as the king of all essential oils, being used in skin care products and perfumes for decades.
Characteristics
A sweet and lemony fresh top note with a warm, floral and balsamic undertone. A favourite with aromatherapists and oil burners for the uplifting and fresh scent and positive mind attributes.
Organic Bergamot is the classic oil found in Early grey tea, which gives Earl Grey its distinctive flavour and therapeutic effects.
Oils to Blend with
Organic Bergamot is very versatile in its blending and will go with most essential oils. It blends very well with other citrus oils as well as floral's. Some Naturallythinking favourite Bergamot blends are with Cypress, Sandalwood, Juniper, Coriander, Black Pepper, Ginger, Clary Sage, Rosemary and Frankincense.

Precautions
The Organic Bergamot Essential we sell at Naturallythinking has the Bergapetene removed for safety (this is the FCF declaration in the name) and therefore it is safe for use in sunlight, although we do not recommend using in direct sunlight.
Bergamot can has a calming, but euphoric effect on the senses and therefore we do not recommend burning when consuming alcohol.
Organic Bergamot can irritate very sensitive skin.
