Bergamot FCF Essential Oil (Bergapten-Free)

Bright, light, and effortlessly elegant, Dreaming Earth Botanicals’ Bergamot FCF Essential Oil is a bergapten-free (FCF) citrus oil cold expressed from the peel of Citrus bergamia fruit grown in Italy. Beloved for its fresh, fruity-citrus aroma and classic perfumery heritage, Bergamot is both uplifting and grounding—an instant mood-brightener that also helps bring the nervous system back to center.

Bergamot is famously known as the signature flavor in Earl Grey Tea and as a cornerstone of classic eau-de-cologne. Our FCF (Furocoumarin-Free) version is bergapten-free, making it a safer choice for massage oils, baths, and lotions, with reduced risk of photosensitivity compared to traditional Bergamot.

Description & Uses

Bergamot is a favorite in natural perfumery and body care for its clean, sparkling citrus character—sweet without being sugary, fresh without being sharp. Many aromatherapists also reach for Bergamot when they want to shift the emotional atmosphere of a space—clearing heaviness and inviting a lighter, more optimistic tone.

As Gabriel Mojay notes in Aromatherapy for Healing the Spirit, Bergamot is traditionally associated with helping disperse stagnant energy—supporting forward movement with a brighter spirit.


Recipe: Uplifting Blend

A simple, sunny blend for massage, bath, or natural fragrance.

You’ll need:

  • 2 drops Geranium Essential Oil

  • 2 drops Lavender Essential Oil

  • 2 drops Bergamot FCF Essential Oil

Directions:
Blend the essential oils with 6 teaspoons of Dreaming Earth Botanicals Massage Base (or any carrier oil). Use for a gentle massage, add to a bath, or wear as an uplifting personal scent.


Cautions

Bergamot essential oil can increase the skin’s susceptibility to burning if applied before sun exposure. This Bergamot is Bergapten-free (FCF), which reduces the risk of photosensitizing and makes it safer for massage oils and lotions—but it’s still best practice to dilute properly, patch test, and use mindful sun habits. For external use only.
