Neroli Essential Oil TRUE
Adam Michael has this to say “The neroli we offer here is 100% pure neroli essential oil that is obtained by steam distillation of the dried flowers. Although the enfleurage process is still used under some circumstances most of the oil available commercially is produced by steam distillation as dry flowers deliver a higher yield of oil than fresh ones. Neroli blends well with almost any other floral oil, especially rose, and for the ultimate in luxury you might try mixing it with both rose and jasmine absolutes. The colour of neroli is yellow but brownish red if exposed to light for some time.
There are many apocryphal stories that account for the name of this oil. That it was Nero’s favourite perfume and therefore named after him is, I think, unlikely since there is no evidence to suggest that the orange (bitter or sweet) was available to the Romans at that time. More likely is that the oil was used for perfuming gloves by the wife of Flavio Orsini, Prince of Neroli in about 1680. The distillation of the oil was first described in 1580.”
Joseph Colbourne has this to say “An invaluable essential oil for aromatherapists and perfumers alike, our neroli distilled in Tunisia is remarkable in its radiant, green aroma, with invigorating, top notes drifting into round orange flower softness and sunlit elegance. Noted for its capabilities as a central nervous system sedative, neroli essential oil has been shown in studies to reduce chronic anxiety, depression, stress, and shock. Furthermore, it is a skin nourishing oil, aiding in the healing of scars, stretch marks, and broken capillaries. Needless to say, it is a staple in any aromatherapist’s cabinet.
As a perfume material, one cannot deny its suave beauty in shaping everything from floral orientals to masculine citrus colognes. A versatile, substantive material, neroli has an impact even in small amounts. There is also significant tenacity, with its vibrance remaining even eighteen hours later on a perfume strip. A mildly balsamic dry down is a great bridge for base notes in a composition.”

Superb neroli oil. Extremly comforting scent. Definitely a TRUE neroli oil, that reminds me of the walks I used to take in the Cordoba streets at night (Spain) during early summer. This oil succeeds in being at the same time intoxitacing and relaxing. Highly recommended.

Definitely the best neroli, which I had. No petitgrain sharpness, but the lightness and mystery of tender flowers. Very long lasting, pleasant, calming..not top notes, but deep heart and basic notes. I will never have enough.

I agree this is superior to any other neroli I’ve ever worked with, it’s just so powerful and zappy! I do prefer the absolute if I compare side by side but some things just need a drop of this instead. Not too sweet, green undertones a little soapy.

Neroli essential oil is my queen. Sophisticated, graceful, charming and rich.

Sometimes neroli can have sour edge, or be little off- but this one out of the bottle – no off notes. It is strong, powerful, all neroli has to be diluted to find the subtleties, have it open up-when this is diluted to20% it has the typical high , sweet&floral profile, but it also has a undertone of fruit- it is diffusive, vey enveloping. Neroli can be both an eye opener and a soporific-and this one does both, leaving me happily calm, satisfied.
The tenacity is good, this is a mid note. With some support- it could easily be the star of any perfume.
10% it a sweet musky citrus, almost watery, but still tenacious- so it can be a back up singer too.
Neroli is so important to not aromatherapy and perfumery, so important to get the right note going- and truly his is the right note.

Linalool smell with citrus note
Long lasting more than 10 hours
Aleksey P (verified owner) –
Great neroli oil! So bright and powerful, as refined and sophisticated. A harmonious combination of sweet and bitter notes, pungency and tenderness.
For masculine citrus accords, I combine it with bergamot petitgrain and lime, for feminine accords with sweet orange, tangerine and yuzu.
Rose and sandalwood give neroli extra sweet, floral and creamy undertones.
Galina G (verified owner) –
Neroli oil from the Hermitage is a real gift for real princesses. Although neroli is often used in men’s fragrances, I personally believe that this oil has a purely feminine character.
And I agree with the definition – TRUE neroli. No extraneous notes resembling petitgrain, as is often the case in fakes or cheap oils. The scent is pure and shining like a diamond. Refined bitterness sets off sweet, honey, floral and citrus notes.
A fragrance for romantics and lovers.

Neroli true essential oil is a gold ingredient in skincare. Anti-age properties, suitable for sensitive skin. Emotionally is calming and in the same time inspiring.
Kai Leon Art Parfumeur (verified owner) –
Top-notch healing perfume in its own right – fine, rich, fresh, seamlessly balanced, suave, euphoric, diffusive, radiant, full of delicate nuances.
For a full image of Italian princess obsessing about this essence – to the point of routinely perfuming with it her horses, blend with animalistic leather bases (Patchouli, Cambodi Oud, Civet), and enjoy baroquified decadence. For the highest ecocative resolution of the iconic image of ‘Fleur d’Orange’, and anchoring its light nature I mix this perfect Neroli with its ‘meatier’ virile brother Orange Blossom absolute, also gorgeous from Adam.
A quote of a friend: ‘when I let myself to enjoy Neroli with guilt-free generosity, my mind begins to swirl dancing on sirenic melodic scales, produced by clinging gem crystals and sparkling bubbles of careless happiness’.
