Orange 5 Fold Essential Oil
EO-ORNG-5FLD-5ML
Orange 5-fold Essential Oil, derived through cold pressing of the orange peel, presents as a yellow to dark orange liquid with a sweet, fresh, fruity, and citrusy scent. This concentrated oil, extracted from the evergreen orange tree with dark green, glossy leaves, spines, and fragrant white flowers, boasts a sweet pulp without bitter membranes. With origins in China and extensive cultivation in America and the Mediterranean, orange oil finds frequent use in aromatherapy, and fine toiletries.
Orange 5-Fold Oil is more concentrated than regular citrus essential oils. The fruit itself has a sweet pulp with no bitter membrane. Through extended distillation, terpenes are removed from the oil, rendering it more suitable for cosmetic applications.
