• Room freshening: its clean, zesty aroma is traditionally used to freshen living spaces.

• Refreshing: a crisp, sunny scent that may help promote a positive mood.

Directions for Use:

• Aromatherapy: add a few drops to a diffuser or a bowl of warm water to fragrance a room.
• Topical: always dilute in a carrier oil (such as jojoba or sweet almond) before applying to the skin.
• Patch test: carry out a patch test on a small area before first use.
• Sun sensitivity: bergamot may increase the skin's sensitivity to sunlight; avoid direct sun or UV exposure for at least 12 hours after applying to the skin.

• Caution: keep out of reach of children; if pregnant or breastfeeding, consult a doctor before use.

Expanded Overview:

Bergamot is best known as the fragrance that gives Earl Grey tea its distinctive aroma, and its essential oil is a favourite in aromatherapy for the way it seems to be both refreshing and calming at once. It is frequently chosen to help create an uplifting, relaxed atmosphere when diffused.

Biofrid Organic Bergamot essential oil is sourced from controlled organic cultivation and offered as a 100% pure oil. Because expressed citrus oils can be phototoxic, take particular care to dilute it well and avoid sun exposure after skin application.
