Q7: How does bergamot compare to similar essential oils?

Bergamot is unique among citrus oils - it shares the bright, fresh top notes of lemon and orange but adds a distinctive floral-spicy complexity and a softer, more rounded finish. Unlike lemon which can be sharp and purely energizing, bergamot simultaneously uplifts and calms, making it the quintessential mood-balancing oil. This dual-action quality is why bergamot is the signature note in Earl Grey tea and a cornerstone of fine perfumery. It is often recommended by aromatherapists as a versatile and distinctive addition to any essential oil collection.

Q8: What size options are available and how long does a 30ml bottle last?

This product comes in a 30ml (1 fl. oz) amber glass bottle with a built-in dropper for precise dispensing. At typical usage of 3-5 drops per diffusion session, one bottle can last approximately 2-4 months with daily use. The amber glass protects the oil from UV degradation, helping maintain freshness and potency over time. An economical choice for those who use bergamot regularly in diffusion and personal care routines.
