From Caribbean Groves to Your Diffuser

The accidental citrus that became a global favourite.

- First documented in 18th-century Barbados as a chance hybrid of pomelo and sweet orange, earning the nickname "the forbidden fruit".

- The oil is cold-pressed or steam-distilled from the dimpled peel, where tiny glands hold the fruit's signature zest.

- Today, sun-loving groves in the USA, Israel, Argentina and Mexico supply the world's most loved citrus oil.

SAFETY

Dillution guideline

  • Use at 1-4% dilution in a carrier oil for topical application; for facial use stay at 1%.

  • Patch test

Apply a diluted drop to the inner forearm and wait 24 hours before broader use.

  • Children

Avoid topical use on children under 2; for ages 2+ use heavily diluted (≤0.5%) and only with parental supervision.

  • Pregnancy

Consult a qualified healthcare professional before use during pregnancy or while nursing.

  • Pets

Citrus oils can be irritating to cats, dogs and birds — diffuse only in well-ventilated rooms with an exit path for pets.

  • Photosensitivity

Steam-distilled Grapefruit is generally considered low-risk for phototoxicity, but caution is still advised — avoid direct sunlight or sunbeds for 12 hours after topical application.

  • Ingestion

Do not ingest unless under the guidance of a qualified aromatherapy professional.

  • Storage

Store tightly closed in a cool, dark place away from heat and sunlight; refrigeration extends shelf life. Best used within 12 months of opening.

Outstanding

nice citrus scent, many people liked this oil probably the most. As soon as a bad mood sets in, I put it in my diffuser or in combination with coconut oil on my skin (wrist, neck).
