Type: Essential Oil / Absolute / Spirit Binomial Name: Citrus aurantium Family: Rutaceae Producing Organ: Flowers Origin: Morocco and Tunisia Production: Cultivation, organic (essential oils) or conventional (absolute and spirit) Neroli, at Maison Néroli, of course, is a whole story :) Essential in perfumery, it is used in aromatherapy as a major balancing agent, due to its composition which makes it both tonic and calming. This is what makes it highly beneficial for depression or low morale: during the day it is joyful, bright, and tonifying, while at night it induces peaceful and restorative sleep. Particularly interesting against anxiety, stress and tension, it is also recommended for highly sensitive individuals, like noble chamomile. While it has many other properties (anti-infectious, anti-inflammatory, skin-regenerating...), it is clearly for its effects on the heart and emotions that it is used, in massage or especially in olfaction, to take advantage of its therapeutic and magnificent scent.
