Its composition includes limonene, linalyl acetate, linalool and bergapten, alongside alpha-pinene, beta-pinene and gamma-terpinene, giving it its characteristic citrus and floral aroma.

Main cosmetic uses of bergamot essential oil

Perfumery and top notes. Its citrusy, slightly floral profile makes it a classic component of top notes in fine perfumery and colognes, delivering immediate freshness to a fragrance.

Facial and body cosmetics. It is incorporated in small proportions into creams, gels and body oils for its revitalizing properties, adding pleasant sensoriality to formulations for normal and combination skin.

Hygiene and hair care products. Shampoos, shower gels and artisan soaps use this essential oil as a natural fragrance agent, drawing on its distinctive citrus note within broader compositions.

Artisan soap formulation. Soap makers and small labs use it in cold-process saponification and similar processes, where natural aroma and extract quality are decisive for the final product result.
