Benefits & How To Use

Bergamot FCF Distilled (Feccia) Organic Citrus bergamia (1177)

Bergamot has a sweet, fruity and slightly spicy aroma. It has cooling qualities which are of benefit for both the body and mind. It is a marvellously cheering and balancing oil, which can help pave the way for a restful night. The naturally expressed oil is ‘phototoxic’, which means that if you put oil on the skin and then go into direct sunlight it will affect the skin’s pigmentation.

What does FCF mean?FCF stands for ‘furocoumarin-free’ which means that the oil does not contain furocoumarins (the components that cause photosensitivity and phototoxicity). In some Bergamot oils the furocoumarins are removed however distilled Bergamot oils are naturally free of these components as they have a low volatiliy and therefore do not appear in the distilled oil.

This is a distilled oil which naturally contains no furo-coumarins.

This is a pure therapeutic-quality certified organic aromatherapy essential oil from Italy, and is obtained from the peel.

Help me choose: A non-organic Bergamot distilled FCF is also available.
