100% PURE BERGAMOT-BERGAPTENE FREE ESSENTIAL OIL - BEST WHOLESALE AND MANUFACTURER TOP QUALITY

Bergamot-Bergapten free essential oil is derived from the bergamot fruit, scientifically known as Citrus bergamia. It belongs to the Rutaceae family, which is the citrus family. It is classified under the genus Citrus, which includes various citrus fruits such as oranges, lemons, and grapefruits. These trees are small to medium-sized evergreen trees that can reach a height of about 4 to 5 meters (13 to 16 feet). They have rounded crowns with dense foliage. The leaves are dark green, glossy, and ovate or elliptical in shape, growing in an alternate arrangement along the branches. It produces small, white or pale pink flowers that are highly fragrant. The flowering season typically occurs during the spring months. After pollination, the flowers develop into fruits that mature over several months. The bergamot fruit is roughly the size of an orange but is more pear-shaped.

It has a thin, smooth, and oily skin that is yellow when fully ripe. The fruit is known for its distinctive aroma and flavour, which is a combination of citrus, floral, and slightly spicy notes. These trees thrive in a subtropical climate characterized by hot, dry summers and mild winters. The combination of coastal breezes, ample sunlight, and fertile, well-draining soil with a slightly acidic pH creates optimal conditions for the growth and development of bergamot trees. They are propagated through grafting or budding onto rootstocks. Grafted trees are typically preferred for their improved vigour and disease resistance. The trees require careful pruning and regular maintenance to ensure proper growth and optimal fruit production.

The fruits are harvested during the winter months, typically from November to February. Harvesting is done by hand, as the fruits need to be carefully cut from the branches to avoid damage. The timing of the harvest is crucial to ensure that the fruits are at their peak ripeness and contain the maximum amount of essential oil.This essential oil contains various chemical compounds that lead to the oil’s aromatic and therapeutic properties. Monoterpenes are the primary group of compounds found in this oil. The most prominent monoterpene in it is limonene, which contributes to its citrusy aroma. Limonene is also known for its potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Esters are another significant group of compounds found in them. The main ester present is linalyl acetate, which gives the oil its floral aroma and is known for calming and relaxing effects.

It contains certain alcohols, including linalool. Linalool contributes to the oil's floral and slightly spicy scent and has soothing and sedative properties. Sesquiterpenes are also present in smaller amounts in the oil. These compounds, such as α-bergamotene and β-bisabolene, contribute to the oil's complex aroma and potential therapeutic effects. It is important to note that while these are the major components found in the oil, there are other minor constituents as well. The precise chemical composition can vary slightly based on the specific variety of bergamot, cultivation practices, and processing methods used.The history of this oil traces back to the Calabria region in southern Italy, where the bergamot fruit has been cultivated for centuries. The bergamot tree is believed to have originated in Southeast Asia, specifically in the tropical regions of China and India.

It was later introduced to the Mediterranean region, including Italy, during ancient times. The Calabria region in southern Italy, known for its ideal climate and soil conditions, became the main hub for bergamot cultivation. The unique microclimate, with a combination of coastal winds and hilly terrain, provided the perfect conditions for growing high-quality bergamot fruit. Its essential oil gained popularity during the 18th and 19th centuries, particularly in the perfume and fragrance industry. The oil's distinctive aroma, with its citrusy and floral notes, made it a valuable ingredient for perfumes, colognes, and scented products. Traditional extraction methods of the oil involved cold-pressing the peel of the bergamot fruit. However, it was discovered that bergapten, a compound found in the oil, could cause photosensitivity reactions when applied topically and exposed to sunlight. To address the issue of photosensitivity, a process was developed to remove the bergapten compound from the essential oil. This led to the creation of Bergamot-Bergapten free essential oil, which maintained the characteristic aroma of bergamot while reducing the risk of skin sensitization. Today, this oil is widely all around the world for various purposes and is cherished for its uplifting and calming effects.
