Features & Benefits

Bergamot essential oil provides a lovely, uplifting scent. Bergamot can support calm and relaxation during the day, and, in the evening, can promote a good night’s sleep. For digestive support, rub diluted Bergamot onto the belly or consume a single drop in a teaspoon of honey. Bergamot can also be used in household cleaners and in muscle and joint salves/massage oils.

Bergamot is best known for its bright, complex citrus aroma with subtle spicy-sweet notes. The sunny scent is often used in perfumes and body care products. Bergamot is calming and may support relaxation, balanced emotions and sleep. As the oil is somewhat photosensitive, do not apply to the skin before direct sun exposure.
