Botanical description

The flower of the bitter orange is the so-called orange blossom or neroli. The bitter orange is a small shrub that we find in the Mediterranean basin. From this shrub three essential oils are extracted from three different secretory organs: the flower (orange blossom or neroli), the orange peel and the leaf. Each of them has specific characteristics. The most appreciated and extraordinary is the essential oil of orange blossom or neroli. To produce a liter of this delicate oil 1000 kg are necessary. Of flowers, this makes it have a higher cost.
