Overview

Wild Orange Essential Oil

Wild Orange has a deep, rich, tangy, sweet-tart aroma unlike any other orange that we know of and may be used as you would Sweet Orange - it’s certain to have interesting uses in natural perfumery and in other instances where Orange oil is called for. In fact, Wild Orange is one of our best selling citrus oils, most likely due to this oil’s irresistibly unique, tangy aroma!

Considering that most citrus peel essential oils contain very high percentages of limonene (up to 95%), one would expect them to have aromas that are more alike than they are. The fact that Orange, Lemon, Lime and Grapefruit essential oils smell differently due to constituents amounting to less than five percent of the overall oil is fairly comprehensible. The fact that Orange oils of the same species can differ aromatically based on percentages of less than one percent is pretty remarkable.

Wild-grown and organic citrus peel oils are preferred for use in aromatherapy preparations since the residues of farming chemicals accumulate in the outer peels and can be detected in the cold-pressed oils by GC-MS analysis. Wild botanicals in general, free of human intervention, have a vivacity and determination that is reflected in their essential oils – spirited, irresistible and alive. Wild Orange in the diffuser will bring a cheerful tone and an uplifting, 'wildly' familiar fragrance to the nursery, office, spa or studio.

THE Perfect Orange Review by

I have 2 different orange oils, and I make it a point to smell every orange oil I can find because they never do smell like orange, not really. This absolutely smells like a beautiful orange, the perfect orange that you absolutely have to eat right then. It is bright and cheerful, it is clean, it is lingering at least for an orange oil. It is a happy scent. You have to love Eden Botanicals, nobody else can find this at least they don’t put it out. Bravo!

This orange is so tangy it reminds me of under ripe citrus... you can almost taste something sour in your mouth when smelling it, it is that evocative. Although not my favorite of Eden's oranges, this is an interesting note that can be blended with other citruses to give them more depth.

This oil has become a favorite in my household. We use it in a citrus blend as a room freshener and in laundry. It's super refreshing and invigorating, and like the description says, it's different from any other orange aroma. There does seem to be something wild about it!

Wild Orange is simply intriguing. I definitely agree that it is unlike the other orange oils. As already states, it has a sweet tart, tangy note that is like a cross between orange & grapefruit, BUT....... the quality that really makes it stand out is that, unlike the other orange oils, this one has this "juicy" undertone to it. It is just as if you are biting into an orange and the juice spray everywhere. Literally, it smells just like that. It is like Wild Orange captures the entire essence of the orange experience, and that is the best way to describe it.

This is BY FAR the best in the orange group, even better than Blood Orange in my opinion. I hope that EB manages to keep this one in stock for a very long time.

I have found my new favorite orange oil in Eden's wild orange. The scent is very tangy, almost like grapefruit, but with a richer, sweeter undertone often associated with sweet orange. It seems to lose a bit of its freshness when heated in a diffuser, so I tend to use it in creams, annointing blends or simply on a tissue for an instant lift. It works really well with just a drop of frankincense Oman.

Wild Orange EO is a delight to behold. I am always pleased by the fresh citrus oils Eden Botanicals provides, but Wild Orange is a rock star in that group of zesty top-notes. It's like sweet orange, mandarin, and grapefruit all got married. It echoes of candy tarts and lemon bars with a green note balanced between the round sweetness and the incredible intensity of this oil. Blend well with almost everything.

I love citrus oils and I have many in my collection which led me to trying Eden's wild orange oil (their descriptions always help with my deciding!).
It is gentle and sweet with a "wild" edge to it unlike cultivated orange oils I have experienced. When I smell it I can just imagine being in that warm and sunny tropical setting getting a fragrant whiff of wild oranges in the breeze--yum! When I want a little more than just good ole' orange, I go for this one!
