Sweet Orange

Family: Rutaceae
Genus: Citrus
Species: C. sinensis

Oranges are arguably the most famous member of the Citrus family. There are several important sweet orange varietals, grown for direct sale or processing into orange juice. Cold pressing of the rind allows collection of the oil, whilst the rest of the fruit is pulped to produce juice. Extracted from the orange peel, the oil is high in D-limonene, a component widely used in the fragrance industry.

Orange extracts have been used for hundreds of years in ancient medicine and aromatherapy. Studies have found Orange oil to have several medicinal properties, including being antimicrobial, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and aiding mood improvement.
