Pomelo Fruit Blossom

The aroma of Pomelo flower essential oil is lovely, delicate, well balanced yet strongly scented with a floral, sweet, orange-like fragrance. Upon inhalation, its effect is enlivening and mood elevating. It feels cleansing and clarifying and engenders pure fluids which moisten the eyes, nose and mouth.

Pomelo, is an ethnomedicinally, pharmacologically, and phytochemically valued citrus fruit species. The fragrant, large, creamy white flowers of the Pomelo plant open in mid-spring. Chemical components from the blossoms exhibit a lipid-lowering effect plus various other biological activities, including; anti-oxidant, anti-tumor, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory processes.
