essential oil

Sweet orange essential oil is expressed from orange rinds. The aroma of the oil is often described as concentrated sunshine and is reputed to improve mood, concentration, focus and clarity of mind. In addition, the scent appeals to people of all ages. This is why the oil is one of the most popular essential oils used in aromatherapy.

Sweet orange essential oil differs from bitter orange essential oil in aroma and origin. The latter comes from the Seville orange, also known as sour orange, and, as the name implies, has a sweet but slightly sour scent.
