Bergamot oil is widely used in aromatherapy for its calming and uplifting properties, helping to reduce stress and anxiety. It is a key ingredient in many perfumes and colognes due to its fresh, citrusy scent.

In skincare, it is valued for its antiseptic and anti-inflammatory qualities, often incorporated into products targeting acne and oily skin.

The oil is also used in the food and beverage industry to flavor teas, particularly Earl Grey, and various confectioneries. Additionally, it serves as a natural insect repellent, offering a safer alternative to chemical-based products.

Caution: Bergamot oil should be properly diluted before topical use as it may cause skin irritation if applied undiluted. It is phototoxic due to furocoumarins; avoid direct sunlight exposure after application. Not recommended for internal use without professional supervision.
