What are essential oils? It is a very valuable 100% pure and natural aromatic ingredient (essential oil) extracted from plant components. The flowers, leaves, pericarp, and roots of plants are extracted by steaming (steam distillation method) or squeezing the skin (squeezing method). Plants that are stuck produce ingredients to protect themselves from foreign enemies and diseases in order to fulfill their lives. Its component is the essential oil itself, which is a fragrance component, and it is a very useful ingredient such as insect repellent and relaxing ingredient. It has been used since the days of ancient Egypt, before the term aromatherapy took root in the 1930s. Essential oil is very valuable, and in order to obtain 1 kg of essential oil, 100 ~ 200 kg of flower spikes in lavender, Roses require 3~5 tons* of flowers. Only a small amount can be obtained from a large amount of raw plants. In the case of citrus fruits, essential oils are extracted from the residue (peel) after squeezing the juice from the fruit, and have been upcycled since ancient times. < Bergamot FCF> Although it is a citrus essential oil, it has a mild and refreshing aroma with low acidity. It is useful when you have something to worry about. The scent is relatively mild, so I would like to recommend it to those who are not good at strong scents. This bergamot FCF is made by removing the furocoumarins* contained in bergamot essential oil by a natural method, and can be used during the day without worrying about phototoxicity.
