Description

Ancient Origin: Neroli oil is also known as Orange Blossom oil and was originally used by the Romans. In 1680 Anna Maria Orsini, Princess of Nerola used it as her favourite perfume and from this time on the oil became known as Neroli. Orange flowers have many folk associations. One is that they were used in bridal beds to calm nervous apprehension before the couple retired to bed. Neroli comes from the white blossoms of the Bitter Orange tree which originated in China. It is extremely expensive to produce since it takes over a ton of blossom to make one kilo of pure oil. To add to the expense the blossom must be picked by hand just as it opens!

Source: Although a native to the Far East it has adapted well to the Mediterranean climate . Major producers include Italy, Tunisia, Morocco, Egypt the USA and France.

Skin Care: Neroli is very valuable in skin care as it has the special property of stimulating the growth of healthy cells and has certain rejuvenating effects. It can be used for all skin types but is especially helpful for dry or sensitive skins. The delicate perfume makes it lovely to use on the skin.

Digestive System. One of the physical actions of Neroli is to relieve spasms in the smooth muscle especially that of the intestines. It is especially good for chronic diarrhoea which arises from nervous tension.

Nervous System: It is antidepressant, antiseptic, antispasmodic and aphrodisiac as well as being a gentle sedative. As such one of its most important uses is in helping with problems of an emotional nature. It helps with shock and sleeplessness especially if it is connected with anxiety. It can help with PMT because of its calming, anti-stress action and is often valuable for depression in older, menopausal women. The reputed aphrodisiac effect probably relates to its ability to calm the nerves which therefore helps any apprehension felt before a sexual encounter.

Mixing Oils: It blends well with most other essential oils but the most recommended would be the floral categories such as Rose, Jasmine and Lavender
