Essential Oil of Neroli
Neroli has an interesting history.
In the 17th Century Anna Maria de la Tremoille, Princess of Nerole introduced neroli to Italian society. She loved the fragrance and used it everywhere on her gloves, stationery, shawls, and in the bath. Orange blossom became the fashionable scent. It was named Neroli in her honour.
Neroli was used by the prostitutes of Madrid, so they would be recognised by their aroma. The blossoms were worn as bridal headdresses & carried as a bouquet, symbolising purity & virginity.
It was also used by the people of Venice to combat plague and fever.
