Description
The entire lime peel is put through a steam distillation process to produce a sweet, clean, citrus aroma that blends well with Bergamot or other floral aromas. Lime oil's versatile scent also complements other citrus essential oils such as Lemon, Grapefruit, Orange, and Tangerine. When diffused, it is believed to create an uplifting and refreshing environment.
