Neroli Essential Oil


Average Product Rating: 4.8 / 5 (Based on 32 Customer Reviews)



Botanical Name: Citrus aurantium amara

Plant Part: Flowers

Extraction Method: Steam Distilled

Origin: Italy

Description: Neroli Essential Oil is derived from the blossoms of either the sweet orange tree or the bitter orange tree. Our variety comes from the bitter orange tree which is viewed within the aromatherapy world as being of higher therapeutic quality.

Color: Dark greenish yellow liquid.

Common Uses: Neroli Essential Oil increases circulation and stimulates new cell growth. It can prevent scarring and stretch marks, and has been found useful in treating skin conditions linked to emotional stress. Any type of skin can benefit from this oil, although it is particularly good for dry, irritated or sensitive skin. It regulates oiliness and minimizes enlarged pores. Neroli Oil helps to clear acne and blemished skin, especially if the skin lacks moisture. With regular treatment, it can reduce the appearance of fragile or broken capillaries and varicose veins. Other properties include being antidepressant, antiseptic, antispasmodic, aphrodisiac, carminative, cordial, deodorant, digestive, stimulant (nervous) and tonic (cardiac, circulatory).

Consistency: Medium

Note: Middle

Strength of Aroma: Strong

Blends well with: Lavender, Lemon, Clary Sage, Myrrh and spice oils such as Nutmeg, Cinnamon Bark and Clove Bud.

Aromatic Scent: Neroli Essential Oil has a sweet, floral citrus aroma. Many aromatherapists refer to Neroli as an exotic and exquisite essential oil.

History: Though Bitter Orange Essential Oil has been around for centuries, Neroli Essential Oil wasn’t discovered until the seventeenth century. It was named after Anna Maria de la Tremoille, princess of Nerola. The oils properties were extremely valued by the people of Venice who used it against plague and fevers.

Cautions: This oil is non-toxic and non-sensitizing. Avoid use during pregnancy.

I've loved all the oils I've worked with so far -- one being the Neroli. It is a heavenly scent and I ran through my first little bottle quickly. I just opened my recently shipped new bottle and it's not at all the same. Odd smell and very fluid rather than the first batch which was somewhat viscous. Something seems wrong with it. It's pretty pricey to just give up on, help!

Neroli is an acquired taste. It is not sweet like the scnet of orange blossoms in the evening, nor is it like an orange. Once you develop an appreciation for this complex scent, it really is lovely. Citrusy and fresh. Blends incredibly well with other oils, and is wonderful on the skin. I highly recommend it.

I received my package today. All the other oils (Chamomile, Immortelle, etc) are excellent. The neroli smells like a mixture of rotten orange skin and rancid cooking oil, not sweet or heavenly as described. I diluted it into almond oil, then no smelt at all. It's the first time I try neroli. Given all the 5 star reviews, is the 5ml sent to me fresh enough?

What a really great scent for everyone's bedroom! It works even better than Roman chamomile for calming us down. Thanks for the small size and the great price!

Fantastic! My favorite floral scent, along with rose. I love the freshness of neroli, and it's wonderful combined with petitgrain and orange. One of my favorite fresh, uplifting blends, and everyone always asks what perfume I'm wearing when I spritz it around my office at work.

I have tried many Essential oils and there are a couple that I really love. Ylang-lang is one however Neroli has topped it by far. I love it!! I use it in my body butter or in a mixture blend with other oils and I can say it's most erotic. I started out trying a small bottle and now I'm back for the Larger Bottle.

I agree with Connie from Lansdowne exactly! This oil is sublime/heavenly/fantastic. It smells the same/just as delicious straight out of the bottle or in a massage oil blend. It's smells citrus-y, but not as light/sparkly as regular oranges or lemons, it's more rich and sultry...One of the best scents I've EVER come across!

If you are sitting there looking at the price and thinking - "is this really worth it? should I just get some other oils instead?" the answer is SPEND THE MONEY! YES it IS worth it! Right now I am thinking just how versatile this scent is in perfumes and other scented products not even to mention its healing qualities! WONDEROUS!

An amazing scent that does transport you to an orange tree in bloom. I didn't believe it at first but it is true! Very exotic scent that in my opinion is good for every occasion and also has many medicinal properities as well. It is really strong so be sure to dilute it or it is just too strong.

Neroli is a MUST, MUST in aromatherapy, and just having a little bottle will ensure you a moment of true clear thoughts and happiness. when i smelled it transported me to my country Dominican Republic, where i have a orange tree and when it blossom i was going nuts smelling every single flower. it is a aphrodisiac, excellent toner and perfume. i can't believe that they have this expensive oil so affordable here, i wonder where they get it?. oh! mix 3 drops of neroli, 2 patchouli dark and 1 drop of cinnamon for a sensual mix.

This scent is purely exquisite. Watch out as I've found that it needs to be calmed down with something else in the mixture, such as a good base like sandalwood or lavender. I've smelt perfumes completely based on this scent. Great!

This is the pure scent of heaven, but in a bottle. I wear a drop (diluted!) on the shoulder strap of my bra when I'm feeling stressed or blue, so I can enjoy the exquisiteness all day. While I was waiting for an elevator once, a total stranger piped up to the waiting crowd, "Whoever smells like orange blossoms, it's delicious!"

Do not judge this oil in the bottle! The true splendor of Neroli is only released when diffused or highly diluted. A little goes a long way is an understatement with this oil, it is worth the expense because of its tenacity and long lasting fragrance. Try the Neroli floral water and add a few drops of essential oil to an ounce in a spray bottle, your whole house could smell like a spring orchard in a few moments. Thank you N-D for offering the 1/6 ounce size so everyone can afford this luxury oil!

This is one of the most exquisite and exotic aromas out there and a true favorite of mine. I especially love it in the sensual blends. I have many types of citrus trees in my backyard and my favorite time of year is when they are in bloom......that's the exact perfect scent bottled here......great quality oil, and worth every penny.
