Bright, tart and clean, this lime essential oil opens like freshly cut peel, with green citrus sparkle and a crisp rind edge. Cold-expressed from the fruit peel of Citrus aurantifolia, it is made for oil burners, diffusers and simple scent rituals that call for a clear, zesty note.

Limes are understood to have originated in Asia, later travelling through warm growing regions including the Mediterranean, the West Indies and the Americas. Their scent carries that same sense of movement: bright, green and immediate, with the clean bitterness of peel rather than the softness o…
