High five for wanting to learn more about Bergamot (FCF) essential oil!

  • Botanical Name: Citrus bergamia (FCF: furanocoumarin-free)
  • Appearance: Colorless to pale yellowish green clear liquid
  • Strength: Mild to Moderate
  • Description: Fresh citrus, reminiscent of orange and lime, with a soft floral touch and a whisper of sweet and spicy notes
  • Highlights: This furanocoumarin-free form of bergamot is manufactured as an alternative to cold pressed bergamot, with the amount of bergaptene reduced or removed. While FCF bergamot oil does not smell as rich as the cold pressed oil, it does not pose the same phototoxicity risks.
