Neroli Oil Egypt Citrus aurantium var. amara

  • Description

    Neroli comes from the bitter orange trees, whose blossoms are picked and must immediately be put to distillation to avoid decay due to the delicacy of the flowers. Typically the blossoms are distilled first, producing Neroli essential oil. Egyptian Neroli obtained through steam distillation, from fresh flowers of Citrus aurantium, member of Rutaceae family, pale yellow in colour, having characteristic floral, fresh, green notes. Neroli, widely used in perfumery, is also known to have soothing aromatherapeutic properties.

    The bitter orange tree is relatively small, standing four to seven meters high, with bright-green foliage that, come springtime, is interspersed with a plethora of white, waxy flowers containing the intoxicating essence of orange blossom.

    It has beautiful floral notes that soothes, relaxes and uplifts the spirits and helps maintain confidence. It has an exquisite aroma, perfect for skin care oil, mature and sensitive skin. It also works wonders on scars and stretch marks. It is also believed to relieve tension, stress and anxiety. Neroli Morocco oil also helps in cases of insomnia and depression. Their antispasmodic action promotes a calming effect on the intestines and can be helpful with colitis and diarrhoea. It blends well with Citrus oils, Jasmine, Rose, and Sandalwood oil.

    Neroli oil is obtained from the blossoms of the bitter orange tree. It is extracted via steam distillation. The fertile soil of the Nile Delta region makes it the perfect cultivating ground for Neroli in Egypt. It flourishes in regions with warm, sunny conditions. The bitter orange tree needs to be protected from frost, as it can severely damage the blossoms. Ample sunlight is essential for healthy growth and abundant flowering. While not as large a producer as Morocco or Tunisia, Egypt’s neroli oil is recognised for its quality. Neroli oil is highly valued in perfumery, offering a sophisticated, floral scent. It is incorporated into skincare products for its rejuvenating and calming properties.

    Low priced neroli oil stocks are getting exhausting. The upcoming production cycle is expected to maintain this price level. Rising production costs will eventually impact oil price. Though this is unlikely in 2025 and is expected to take a couple of years.
