🌿 Product Description
Bitter Orange Oil is an invigorating citrus essential oil extracted by cold pressing the rind of the Citrus aurantium fruit. Known for its bright, tangy, and slightly bitter-sweet aroma, it offers both aromatic appeal and therapeutic benefits. This oil is distinct from sweet orange oil, with a more complex and sharper fragrance profile often used in fine perfumery, natural skincare, aromatherapy, and food-grade flavoring.
Rich in limonene and other citrus terpenes, Bitter Orange Oil exhibits antibacterial, antifungal, and uplifting properties. It is commonly used in cologne bases, detox blends, and mood-enhancing formulations.
