I HAVE USED OTHER ORANGE SCENTED CLEANERS, BUT I LIKE THE LINGERING AROMA OF THIS BETTER. I FIRST STARTED MAKING SCENTED SOAPS LAST YEAR AND GAVE THEM AS CHRISTMAS PRESENTS TO MY CO-WORKERS IN A NURSING HOME. THEY ALL LIKED THE SCENTS, COLORS AND SOFTNESS OF THE SOAPS. I MADE MINIATURE BARS, CIRCLES AND PUT THEM IN A TALL WINE GOBLET AS THE PACKAGING. IT WAS FUN.

Wonderful authentic scent which packs a pretty strong punch so be careful when blending not to use too much or it will overpower any other scents.

Smells exactly like it sounds. I'm a lover of sweet orange teas, and the scent and character of this essential oil doesn't disappoint! So refreshing, characteristic of the citrus oils.

Divinely relaxing and just the perfect scent, sweet orange has a wonderful aroma just like a sweet sunday morning. Infused or added in body products just perfect.

It is an absolute favorite of mine--along with Grapefruit Pink. I put a few drops of this Orange in my kitchen sink along with a non-scented, mild dish soap, and washing up in the kitchen is a pleasure. It is great mixed with a little vinegar, soap and water for clean up in the bathrooms, too. It freshens everything and makes my job so pleasant. I've reordered it a few times, and now I'm going to have to order a LARGER size!! It Is Delicious.

The scent of this ingredient is rich and sweet and I used it in a toner that I have already sold out of. Everyone loved it. Thanks.

This potent oil has a sweet, orangy frangrance and is multipurpose in its use. I mostly use it in my aromatherapy bubble baths, and just to smell the scent carries me away to a fresh orange grove under a blue sky with nothing but orange trees as far as the eye can see! You've got to try it, you'll love it as much as I do!

While I would not use in a lip balm on CHAPPED lips it is a wonderful additive for the girls who just want a fun scent. It is great in our schaets and insence blends, diffusers you name it! A very pleasureable scent for so many reasons and of COURSE the NEW DIRECTIONS label means it is the BEST you can buy!
Thanks ND

This scent is very useful. This would go wonderfully in lip balm, or perhaps some kind of lotion. When used in perfumery however, it is very overpowering, which can be a good thing or a bad thing.

This is always an essential oil I turn to for that lovely warm citrus scent...just like you've peeled the perfect orange, over and over. Children love it too. Sweet orange is wonderful mixed with Lavender for a serene nights sleep, put it in a diffuser and be serenaded to sleep with a soft lullaby of fragrance and fall into sweet dreamland. Or, add to a refreshing morning shower gel blend with Grapefruit and Peppermint for a perfect wake-up rejuvenator. The list is endless for sweet orange, always a staple in my cupboard and the price makes it easy to always have around.
