Cautions: Bergamot Essential Oil can cause severe burns when used on sensitive skin that has been exposed to sunlight due to the high bergaptene content.

I like this one. It's lIght, fresh, crisp, and citrusy. Smells like a hot cup of Earl Grey tea with an orange slice floating in your teacup. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars was because I found the scent a touch too light.

I really love the light, sweet, fruity scent of this oil. The after tones of a spicy wood just finishes it off beautifully. I have used it in a few blends, but it would be beautiful on it's own too. I will be adding it to my postpartum blend to help ward off depression. I hope it works as well as I read it does. Very happy with this buy!

This oil is a must have for everyone... it is so gentle and so versatile. If you are a person who is angry, depressed or stressed out a lot, this oil will be your best friend. Bergamott is a well known antidepressant that soothes the nerves and gives one a fresh outlook. Oh and it smells so wonderful!!! this is that magical ingredient in Earl grey tea. also good for kidney, bladder and yeast infections in a sitz bath... I love this oil!

A very special oil I use for my Tan Accelerator, among other products. It tans the skin your own color in one day when formulated correctly - in the sun and/or the Tanning Salon! Fantastic!

This is the best bergamot I've experienced and I've been using it for about 6 years! It's clean and fresh, yet has that rich 'flavour' other citrus oils lack.

From a perfumery perspective this scent is quite nice. Spicy and citrusy, it adds punch to most fragrances. This is not a sweet smell though, but it may be just what you need to liven up a fragrance.

my favourite essential oil of all time. i use it with grapefruit, neroli and texas cedarwood for day to day use to keep me smiling throughout my day, and in a spritzer with tea trea, lavender and texas cedarwood and water for acne. i haven't compared its aroma with the bergaptene free, but i usually use it on the insides of my wrists or misted under my clothes so i haven't experienced any problems with sunlight.

Very high quality Bergamot. And one of my very favorite uplifiting oils. You might know this scent by it's infamous use in "Earl Grey Tea". Truly an asset to any aromatherapist.
