Botanical name: Citrus aurantium.
Country of Origin - India
English Name: Sweet Orange Essential Oil
French Name: Huile essentielle d’Orange douce
Also Known As: Sweet Orange Oil, Orange Peel Oil, Citrus aurantium Essential Oil, Orange Zest Oil, Orange Citrus Oil, Orange Fruit Oil, Bitter Orange Oil
Part Used: Peel of the fruit, Citrus aurantium
Description: Sweet Orange Oil is obtained from the cold-pressed peel of Citrus aurantium, a medium-sized evergreen tree in the Rutaceae family. This tree thrives in subtropical and Mediterranean climates, producing a dense canopy of glossy green leaves, fragrant white blossoms in spring, and round, bright orange fruit in late summer. The peel is harvested when the fruit reaches full maturity, exhibiting a firm texture, vibrant orange colour, and naturally aromatic surface, which contains specialized oil glands ideal for extraction.
After harvesting, the fruit peels are carefully cleaned and processed using cold-press extraction, a method that preserves the natural aromatic compounds. The resulting oil is a clear to light orange liquid with a fresh, sweet citrus aroma that reflects the vibrant character of the ripe fruit. Cold pressing captures the essential oils without heat, ensuring the product retains its natural fragrance and colour.
Sweet Orange Oil has a smooth, fluid consistency and a bright, uplifting citrus scent. Its aroma profile is sweet, fresh, and lively, making it versatile for use in a variety of professional and creative applications. This oil is widely appreciated for its functional and aromatic versatility. Its natural sweetness and citrus brightness make it suitable for blending and formulation where a fresh, fruity fragrance is desired. The oil provides a consistent aroma profile that can be incorporated into multiple types of formulations or creative projects, while maintaining its visual and aromatic integrity.
Uses: Sweet Orange Essential Oil is commonly used in aromatherapy devices such as diffusers and room sprays to provide a bright, refreshing citrus scent. It is also widely incorporated into cosmetic and personal care products, including soaps, bath salts, lotions, hair care items, and body sprays, to add a natural, sweet aroma. In manufacturing, it is suitable for fragrance blends, scented candles, and cleaning products. Additionally, Sweet Orange Oil can be used for crafting, visual displays, and educational or botanical reference collections focused on citrus plant materials and oil extraction. Its versatility, aromatic strength, and natural sweetness make it a functional ingredient for a wide range of creative and formulation applications.
