Bergamot Oil | Lift the Mood, Open the Room

Citrus, but greener and more floral than lemon or orange, with a slight bitterness at the edge. The most sophisticated of the citrus oils.

What It Is
Citrus bergamia, cold pressed from the peel. Grown almost entirely in Calabria, in southern Italy, where the climate suits it and almost nowhere else does.

In the Craft
Bergamot is worked for lifting mood, for opening the way in money and success work, and for glamour. It sits in the same family as sweet orange but carries more nuance, which makes it the choice when you want brightness without cheerfulness.

How to Work With It

• Diffuse to lift a room before company or a working.
• Anoint a candle for success, confidence or road opening.
• Dilute and wear as a personal glamour oil.
• Blend a drop with lavender for something calm but not sleepy.

Blends well with: lavender, frankincense, cedarwood, ylang ylang, clary sage
