neroli essence

Essence is the French perfumer's word for an essential oil, and neroli essence is simply the oil distilled from bitter orange blossoms, named after Nerola, a town near Rome whose princess, by tradition, made it fashionable. The water left behind by the distillation is orange flower water, the hydrosol of Mediterranean and Middle Eastern pastry, and it carries the oil's sweet, green brightness in a softer, more floral key.
