A coveted, precious essential oil

Bitter orange is a beautiful tree indigenous to Southeast Asia that was introduced to Europe by Arab tradesmen in the 11th century. It is now grown in warm regions around the world. Known as “Citrus aurantium” in the scientific world, it produces essential oils and waters that are widely used in phytotherapy, perfume-making and cosmetics.
