By the end of the 17th century, Anna Maria Orsini, duchess of Braccianoand princess of Nerola, Italy, introduced the essence of bitter orange tree as a fashionable fragrance by using it to perfume her gloves and her bath. Since then, the term "neroli" has been used to describe this essence.
Neroli oil is an essential oil produced from the blossom of the bitter orange tree. The bigaradier orange tree is highly cultivated in the Mediterranean areas. The blossoms are gathered, usually by hand, in late April to early May. Neroli is extracted by steam distillation from the orange blossoms. Neroli oil is very precious: 1000 kg. of fresh blossoms give 1,5 kg. essential oil. The Neroli essence selected for a new fragrance Neroli Mediterraneo comes from Reggio Calabria, a city in the south of Italy, well renowned for its top quality citrus production. Its scent is fresh, slightly bitter, floral with aromatic facets.
