ABOUT THE PLANT
The sweet orange tree, Citrus sinensis, is smaller than the bitter orange tree, Citrus aurantium var. amara, and has smaller fruits. The orange tree is believed to be a native of the region between the Himalayas and south-western China. It wasn't until the early 16th century that the Portuguese explorers introduced the fruit to Europe. Introduced to the Americas by Columbus, it was primarily grown in the West Indies and Florida. Today the essential oil primarily comes from Israel, Brazil, North America and Australia.
ABOUT THE OIL
A yellowy-orange or dark orange liquid, Sweet Orange essential iil is the oil produced from the rind of the fruit. Other 'orange' essential oils are from the bitter orange tree, Citrus aurantium: Petitgrain oil from the leaves, Neroli oil from the blossoms, and Bergamot pressed from the peels.
Anthocyanin, Blood Orange's red pigment, is a powerful antioxidant flavonoid that calms irritation.
OF INTEREST
The scent of this widely used fruit is synonymous with joy, sunlight and sweetness. Oranges are believed to be the Golden Apples of mythological fame and are regarded as a symbol of fertility due to the fact that they can produce flowers and fruit at the same time. The blossoms are sedative. Historically, the peels of oranges have been used in Chinese Medicine for a variety of ailments. They remain a vital part of Chinese medicine and are thought to bring good luck. Used in countless products, orange essential oil has made its way into skin care, cleaning, gardening and food markets worldwide.
