Bergamot's Backstory

Bergamot is extracted from the rinds of the unripe citrus fruit that grow on bergamot orange trees. If you’re a fan of Earl Grey tea, you’re already enjoying the distinctive taste of bergamot (which is used to flavor it). Grown profusely in Italy, the delicate bergamot tree requires a special climate and soil in order to thrive. For hundreds of years, Italians have used bergamot to reduce feelings of stress while rejuvenating skin.

Bergamot’s citrus-floral fragrance is used in many luxury perfumes and colognes. Blend a few drops of Pure Bergamot with a carrier oil and massage it onto your pulse points. Place 3–5 drops in your Pure Bliss Diffuser for a soothing scent anytime, anywhere!
