Our organically produced grapefruit oil is cold-pressed from the seductively fragrant skins of Citrus paradisi fruit harvested from orchards in the South African countryside.
Our Grapefruit Essential Oil, which revives, enhances, and adds emotional buoyancy, has a fresh, light, citrus, sweet, slightly bitter aroma, with a slightly dry taste, due to certain chemical ingredients found only in grapefruits.
Grapefruit oil, like all citrus peel oils, has a predominance of Limonene, a clear, lemon monoterpene that provides an absolutely pleasant scent when dispersed to refresh and disinfect the room environment.
Grapefruit (Citrus paradisi) is a cross between Pomelo (Citrus maxima) and Sweet Orange (Citrus x Sinensis). Its olfactory character is almost exclusively attributed to strong trace constituents, especially Nootkatone and traces of the sulfur-containing compound.
