Description

Bergamot essential oil is a fresh, citrusy and slightly floral oil known for its bright, uplifting aroma. Cold-pressed from the peel of organically grown Citrus bergamia, this oil is beloved in aromatherapy for creating a cheerful, relaxed atmosphere and adding brightness to natural blends. Its complex, sweet-tart scent makes it a favorite in mood-setting blends and natural perfumery.

Why People Love It

  • Uplifting aroma: a bright, sunny scent that sets a cheerful, relaxed mood
  • Skin care rituals: a fresh citrus note in well-diluted skin care (see the phototoxicity warning below)
  • Evening wind-down: a soft citrus-floral aroma to diffuse as the day slows down
  • Freshens indoor spaces: a natural, clean scent for any room
  • Brightens blends: acts as a lively top note in perfumes and diffuser recipes

Aroma Chemistry

Bergamot essential oil contains a range of aromatic compounds:

  • Limonene: gives Bergamot its bright, fresh citrus sparkle
  • Linalyl Acetate: adds a sweet, fruity, slightly floral softness
  • Linalool: contributes a gentle floral note that rounds out the aroma
  • Bergapten: a furanocoumarin responsible for phototoxicity when applied to skin and exposed to sunlight

Together these constituents give Bergamot its unique sweet-tart, citrus-floral character, while requiring mindful, safe topical use.

Energetic, Spiritual & Symbolic Properties

  • Chakras: Heart and Solar Plexus, for emotional release, confidence and lightness
  • Color Correspondence: Green and Yellow, for harmony, joy and emotional flow
  • Planetary Influence: Venus and Mercury, for beauty, communication and balance

In energetic traditions, Bergamot is used to dissolve emotional heaviness and self-judgment, inviting joy, optimism and gentle clarity.

Blending & Compatibility

Bergamot’s bright citrus-floral aroma blends beautifully with:

  • Lavender: for a soft, calming floral-citrus blend
  • Frankincense: for a calm, meditative blend
  • Geranium: for a rosy, balanced floral blend
  • Cedarwood: for a warm, grounding woody blend
  • Sweet Orange: for a cheerful, sunny aroma
  • Ylang Ylang: for sensual, floral-citrus perfumes

Suggested Uses

  • Nebulizing DiffuserĀ®: use 20 to 25 drops to brighten the mood and freshen the space
  • Topical Application: dilute to 0.5 to 1% for skin care or a personal aroma (avoid sun exposure)
  • Bath Ritual: mix a few drops into bath salts or a carrier oil, then add to a warm bath to unwind
  • Personal Fragrance: use as a bright top note in roll-ons and natural perfumes
  • Air Freshener: blend with Lavender or Lemon in a spray for an uplifting mist

Safety & Shelf Life

  • Shelf Life: 1 to 2 years (store away from light and heat)
  • Children: dilute well, use sparingly around young children, and keep out of reach
  • Pregnancy: consult your healthcare provider before use
  • Pets: use with care and proper ventilation; never apply oils to animals
  • Skin Safety: Phototoxic: avoid sun or UV exposure for 12 to 18 hours after topical application

Phototoxicity Warning: This cold-pressed Bergamot oil contains bergapten, which can cause skin sensitivity and pigmentation if applied before sun exposure. Avoid using on exposed skin before spending time outdoors.

Tip: For daytime skin use, choose bergapten-free (FCF) Bergamot essential oil to avoid phototoxicity

    Great oil

  2. gail Robertson (verified owner) –

    I wanted to love this oil, but was so disappointed that it smelled nothing like Bergamot. It had too much of perfume smell for me. Will send it back.

    This is a gentle, relaxing oil. Next to lavender, this is a favorite. Either oil mixed with grapefruit will give you a good nights sleep.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use this oil in a Nebulizing DiffuserĀ®?

Yes. It is 100% pure essential oil with no carrier oil, water or fragrance added, which is exactly what a Nebulizing DiffuserĀ® needs. About 20 to 25 drops in the glass reservoir is enough in most cases, and 15 to 30 drops gives roughly 1 to 2 hours of diffusion on the low setting.

How long will a bottle last?

A 10ml bottle holds roughly 200 drops, which is about 8 to 10 fills of a Nebulizing DiffuserĀ® reservoir. If you diffuse every day, the 30ml and 50ml sizes mean fewer reorders.

How should I store it?

Keep the cap tightly closed and store the bottle upright in a cool, dark place away from heat and direct sunlight. This helps the oil keep its aroma for longer.

Can I use it on my skin?

Essential oils are highly concentrated. Always dilute in a carrier oil before applying to skin, do a small patch test first, and keep oils away from eyes and out of reach of children and pets. Some citrus oils, such as bergamot and cold-pressed lemon, can make skin more sensitive to sunlight.

What are the shipping and return terms?

US shipping is $22.99 and free on essential oil orders over $65. Essential oils cannot be returned.
