Bergamot is the fruit of the Bergamot tree, a citrus tree mainly grown in Italy’s Sicilian and Calabrian regions, and especially in Calabria, along a narrow strip of the coast of Calabria, on the Ionian Sea and the Tyrrhenian Sea, where its production still drives a small local industry. Bermagot essential oil is obtained by steam distilling the oil after it has been collected by cold pressing its rind. This process enables removing the photosensitizer molecules (bergaptene). Its mild, fruity and fresh fragrance is used in both women’s and men’s cosmetics.
