The blood orange is a citrus fruit with dark red flesh and a slightly reddish peel. The evergreen orange trees are cultivated in the Mediterranean region. In order to obtain the essential oil that smells wonderfully of oranges, the peels of the fruits (approx. 200-300 kg per liter) are cold-pressed.

The orange tree originates from the Far East, mainly India and China. In Europe it was used for therapeutical purposes at the end of the 17th century, because it was a very rare tree and therefore very precious. By the time the plant adjusted perfectly to the Mediterranean climate. Out of the oranges juice, the peel and the oil out of the peel can be produced, and everything is broadly applicable.

Usage to scent the room: put enough water into the bowl of the aroma lamp and add 2-5 drops of an essential oil.
 
Usage for the kitchen: 2-3 drops of an essential oil are enough to flavor 100 g of any food. 

Perfect for sauna infusion. Depending on the size of the sauna, 3 to 30 drops of essential oil are used (in infusion water or on crushed ice balls).

To obtain the long-lasting scent and effect of the essential oils it is recommended to keep the oils stored at a constant temperature.
Improper use may pose a health risk to the body and respiratory system.
