Application
Bergamot oil (CAS 8007-75-8) is a cold-pressed essential oil derived from the peel of Citrus bergamia. It possesses a bright, fresh, sweet, and slightly spicy citrus aroma with floral and balsamic undertones. In the flavor industry, it is used as a natural flavoring agent (FEMA 2153) to impart refreshing citrus notes to beverages, confectionery, baked goods, and dairy products, particularly in Earl Grey tea. As a fragrance ingredient, it serves as an uplifting top note in perfumes, colognes, soaps, shampoos, and household cleaners, blending harmoniously with floral, woody, and herbal accords. Bergamot oil also exhibits antiseptic, anti-inflammatory, and mood-elevating properties, making it valuable in aromatherapy for stress relief and skin care formulations for oily and acne-prone skin. Additionally, it functions as a natural deodorizer and as a source of bergaptene and linalyl acetate for the synthesis of other aroma chemicals.
