The character of bergamot
Bergamot is a southern citrus plant whose essential oil is obtained from the peel. Its scent is fresh, citrus, slightly floral and uplifting. You receive a fragrance that helps tune you in during morning hours and also works well in the afternoon for focused work. After purchase it is worth taking a quick look at the detailed description, because it contains useful information for everyday use.
How to use it
Add 3-5 drops to the water dish of an aroma lamp, an ultrasonic diffuser or a pebble scent holder. The evaporating fragrance is noticeable for 2-3 hours in a 15-20 square metre room. Before use, always read the information on the bottle label carefully.
When it works best
We recommend it for morning routines, study rooms, focused work and learning. It is also a good choice for lighter afternoons and welcoming guests, because it is not heavy and gives a light, fresh impression. Before sleep it is less ideal due to its uplifting effect; for that we suggest lavender.
Important notes about citrus essential oils
Bergamot, like many citrus essential oils, can cause photosensitivity if applied directly to skin that is then exposed to sunlight. For this reason we intend this oil for use in an aroma lamp or diffuser, not for direct skin care. Use carefully near children and pets, in a well-ventilated room.
Storage
Keep the bottle in a cool place protected from direct sunlight, with the cap firmly closed. After opening, it preserves its character for around 12 months, so it is worth writing the opening date on the label. The 10 ml size lasts for several months of regular use for you.
