Description / Color / Consistency: A thin, yellowish orange to golden brown liquid.
Aromatic Summary / Note / Strength of Aroma: A middle note with a medium aroma, Orange Essential Oil has a sweet, citrus smell like the orange peels from which it is derived, but more intense and concentrated.
Product Abstract: Orange is derived from an evergreen tree. It is smaller than the bitter orange tree, and less hardy with fewer or no spines. The fruit itself has a sweet pulp with no bitter membrane. It is believed that sweet orange was brought to Europe by the Arabs in the First century along with the bitter orange.
Cautions: This essential oil may contain phototoxic properties and it is suggested to avoid exposure to the sun after application to the skin. Dilute well before use; for external use only. May cause skin irritation in some individuals; a skin test is recommended prior to use. Contact with eyes should be avoided.
Storage: It is recommended that oils packaged in metal containers (for safe shipping) be transferred into dark glass containers to maintain freshness and attain maximum shelf life.

Rating: I have purchased this essential oil twice. It is one of the best-smelling sweet orange essential oils I have tried. I have used it for aromatherapy, making body lotions/butters, and for making perfumes. I most prefer using it in my tea-light oil burner, mixed with NDA’s Vanilla Lace type F.O. It smells like someone is mixing up orange cake batter.

Rating: I have Orange EO from several different companies. None of them stack up to this Sweet Orange. I can say that I have now become a fan of Orange. I am using this in my cleaning products, blends, diffuser. For a top note this still holds a lovely aroma long after the first birst of smell. This is paramount in the business that I am working towards. You can't beat the price. I did read that due to low harvest of citruses in many parts of the world, that prices will be driven up. I encourage anyone that is thinking of purchasing to buy now before you have to pay higher prices in a few months. Some companies have already raised their prices in advance of the upcoming supply and demand. Thank you New Directions for wonderful Essential Oil's. I am thankful I purchased a larger bottle.
Rating: YUM YUM. I used this is tons of recipes & just love it!
By:Scott-Kimberly, Hamilton, Indiana Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 18-Sep-2014
Rating: I ordered 16 oz of this and I absolutely LOVE IT! I use it in a lot of my blends as a modifier to help bring synchronize the other fragrances. Not to mention I LOVE the smell of any and every citrus, it smells so clean! Be careful when adding to body applications as it can stain your base and your clothes.
Rating: A great orange at a great price! I rarely use oranges by themselves, but usually mix them with oils like lavender, patchouli, etc. This strong orange oil helps stretch out those other, more expensive oils and adds a lift that enhances everything I use it in. I love this orange, and love the price!
By:Anita, Brookneal, Virginia Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 09-Dec-2009
Rating: LOVE this Orange EO! Fresh and sweet, juicy with that spot on Orange aroma. Can't wait to start creating! Don't know why it took me SO long to buy oils from NDA - I have been Missing Out! And the price? Helloo! 16oz for $8.25 is happy crazy! Thanks :)

Rating: I bought 16.6 oz of this oil to use in my homemade cleaning supplies. It smells so delicious that I think I will enjoy cleaning a great deal more than I have until now!
By:Alina, Budd Lake, New Jersey Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 06-May-2013
Rating: This is a DELICIOUS smelling oil. I recently have gone green with my home cleaning products. I just bought a dryer ball and dropped about 10-12 drops onto it then threw it in the dryer. Now my kids clothes and our towels have a faint scent of orange. So clean and yummy smelling.
Rating: i am very happy with this orange. It is of fine quality.

Rating: I love the refreshing scent of this orange and use it in one of my most popular cosmetic blends. I also love the great price and service from NDA.
Rating: Mmmmmm... sweet and delicious. Smells just like orange juice. Has a wonderful orange color to it. Almost orange-rind-y... but sweet and great by itself.

Rating: This is a wonderful degreaser and it smells wonderful as well. No need to wear gloves for this cleaner.
By:Laura, Batavia, Ohio Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 06-Oct-2011
Rating: I have been using this oil since starting my business 5 years ago. I use it in my nebulizer just before a client arrives. I never have had a client complain of any kind of negative reaction because of allergies and anyone walking past my studio has always commented on how lovely it always smells. The yoga studio in the same building also started using it and the feedback is very positive. I also use it in products I make such as body creams, lip balms, soap, massage oils.
By:Colleen, St.catharines, Ontario Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 09-Nov-2005

Rating: strong Orange scent. Holds up very well in cp soaps. I blend this with Patchouli Dark fo that hippie lover and its one of my best selling soaps.
By:Derek, Portsmouth, New Hampshire Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 01-Jul-2011
Rating: For years I've been buying organic essential oils, herbs, etc. from one online supplier because I love their products and prices compared to the only local health food store's quality and exhorbitant prices.
However, this sweet orange essential oil is wonderful, and for the price cannot be beaten. I will stick to this one. I use orange essential oil for homemade air fresheners (singly and in blends) and as an addition to natural dish liquids and household cleaners.
Rating: A strong, fresh peeled, orange smell. After my day-teaching job, I run a night-school program at my high school. I add a few drops of Sweet Orange and a few drops of Lavender to my diffuser and everyone is working hard while staying calm. They all love it!
By:Michael, Chicago, Illinois Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 05-Dec-2010
Rating: Love the smell of this e/o! Fresh sweet oranges! I use it in my HP soaps, only downside is it tends to fade after a couple of months, but that seems to be typical of citrus e/o oils. May have to try the 5 fold next time.
By:Garrett, Cedar City, Utah Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 14-Apr-2010
Rating: Lovely orange scent. I've ordered sweet orange elsewhere and received a very, very sweet product. This one was sweet, yet retained the citrus note of oranges. It has held up well in cold process soap.
By:Cynthia, Mount Carroll, Illinois Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 08-Sep-2010
Rating: Great product. I have used it to scent soaps and more, and I am very happy with it.
By:Karen, Strathmore, Alberta Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 09-Nov-2005
Rating: This is a wonderful scent! A most have in any soapers kitchen! It's NDA makes it hugely affordable and it smells fantastic! This e/o smells just as if someone cut open a fresh orange right under your nose. You smell the the citrusy peel and sweet juice all blended together! Love it! Plus this pairs with soooo many things. Possibilities are endless!
By:Heather, Colorado Springs, Colorado Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 26-Aug-2009
Rating: First time using this Oil, and I have to say I'll be ordering more! Its absolutely wonderful! My teenage daughters love this when added to shampoo, conditioner , body butter and wash! they have helped me create a full line of simple made products!

Rating: WoW!! This oil smells heavenly! As soon as I opened the bottle it lifted my spirits! I love the way it smells just like a real orange the way nature intended. I'll be buying a lot more of this stuff very soon!
By:Christine, North Vancouver, British Columbia Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 09-Nov-2005

Rating: Just got my package today. I'm a first time customer, and was very impressed with the packaging when I opened the box....lots of bubble wrap! Since I work for a world wide shipping company, I know how important this is (I do think they could do better on the shipping costs though). Of all the EO's I ordered, this one is my favorite. When people said it smells like a fresh cut orange, they were right on target!!!! It's yummy!
Rating: Love the smell of this EO smells just like fresh cut oranges
By:Marilyn, Newmarket, Ontario Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 09-Nov-2005
Rating: A little too sweet alone I mixed with Patchouli dark for a cp soap and they both came out strong. Smells like a fresh cut Orange.
By:Kristie, Portsmouth, New Hampshire Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 18-Nov-2009
Rating: This is the second time I have bought this essential oil. I love its fragrance and think it's right on the mark. It's zesty, sweet, ( but a natural sweet not candied sweety) and well rounded, like someone just ripped open a fresh orange right near your nose. Buy this in a large quanity! It's is WELL worth the price and comes in a good container. Plus sweet orange is great in sooo many recipes! I use mine in CP, lotions, and sugar scrubs!
By:Heather, Colorado Springs, Colorado Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 26-Aug-2009
Rating: This is a great orange smell! When my hubby and I first smelled this it reminded us both of what an orange smells like when it's been cut into. You smell the fresh sweet orange juice with a splash of the sweet rind. A great blend. And HONESTLY who can complain with these prices!
By:Heather, Colorado Springs, Colorado Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 26-Aug-2009
Rating: I mix this oil with bergamont for a home fregrence. It is so refreshing and adds just the right amount of scent to the room. Great oil!!
By:Michelle, Orillia, Ontario Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 09-Nov-2005
Rating: I bought a few different citrus oils and for some reason didn't want to try orange. I guess I thought it would be boring. Now I know it was just what I was missing! It's a little fuller and sweeter than the other citruses which is just what I'm looking for some times. I mixed it with a touch of ylang ylang and peppermint in a body wash and I swear I want to drink it!
By:Gretchen, Phoenix, Arizona Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 05-Jul-2008
Rating: Very clean and uplifting scent reminiscent of Mandarin oranges at Christmas time. I will be using this for soap as well as hair scenting spray. It is divine!
By:Wendy, Regina, Saskatchewan Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 09-Nov-2005
Rating: Orange oil is a very good natural cleaning product! And it's quite cheap too. You can use it to remove sticky label residue. And it may repel bugs but it won't hurt humans - But don't get it in your eyes.
We have a Jacuzzi bath in our home. About once a month it needs to be cleaned and disinfected. Chlorine bleach does a good job cleaning and disinfecting, but it doesn't seem to remove all the ugly sludge that can build up in the pipes and come out as the occasional unappealing small glob that I call a "pipe nuggie" while taking a relaxing bath.
Here is what I found works good to clean a very large Jacuzzi bath:
Fill the tub with warm water to the normal bath level and turn on the jets.
Pour in about a quart of chlorine bleach.
Pour in a cup of rubbing alcohol
Pour in a couple of fluid ounces of Sweet Orange Oil
Add just enough bubble bath or laundry detergent to disperse the orange oil in the water and get just a fine skim of tiny bubbles on the top of the water. Depending on the size of the tub and the hardness of your water that might be a tablespoon or so.
Let the jets run about 15 minutes with this mixture.
Drain the water and fill and run the Jacuzzi bath with plain cold water for about 10 minutes.
Drain and wipe - There should now be no more pipe nuggies in the water to spoil your bath.
Rating: I have used this to treat breakouts from allergic reactions. It did an EXCELLENT job of drying the "erruptions" before they were able to surface, and prevented a major mess! Don't use it straight, it will irritate your skin. I also add this to my household spray cleaner for it's cleansing properties and fresh fragrance.
By:Laura, Lakeville, Massachusetts Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 22-Mar-2009
Rating: Bought a larger size this time and it's just wonderful. This is such an uplifting scent. Perfect for bath and body. Perfect for candles and smelly jellies. EXCELLENT!!!
By:Lynda, Birmingham, Alabama Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 08-Dec-2008
Rating: Again, great product. the price is right! It's wonderful in lipbalms. Also used it as a home fragrance and potpourri, it has such a clean, uplifting scent, a little goes a long way.
By:Johanne, Montreal, Quebec Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 09-Nov-2005
Rating: This is an exception oil that I am going to market in a way I had not intended to. When I smelled this, I instantly got a pick me up feeling. It was sort of a euphoric feeling. I have used lavender in the past for relaxing but this one grabbed me right away. It's s a wonderful sweet orange scent. It makes you feel good as soon as you smell it. I will have to use this with a reed diffuser so that I can smell this all day. I just bought it to scent some of my cosmetic items but have found another purpose for it. I think I'm addicted to this. The person who wrote that this was great for depression sure knew what they were talking about. Wish I could rate this higher!
By:Lynda, Birmingham, Alabama Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 08-Dec-2008
Rating: This smells so great, you just want to drink the bottle..though not recommended.

By:Kristal, Las Vegas, Nevada Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 07-Feb-2008
Rating: 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.
Rating: This couldn't get any better. I love the orange smell.
By:Patty, Darwin, Minnesota Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 27-Sep-2007
Rating: 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.
By:Lesley, Toronto, Ontario Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 09-Nov-2005
Rating: 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.
Rating: Sweet and clear and perfectly orange. I use Sweet Orange EO a lot, and am very pleased with the quality of this version.

By:Mélanie, Montreal, Quebec Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 09-Nov-2005
Rating: 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.
