Description:  The grapefruit tree was originally from Asia but it is now grown and harvested in the United States, France, Brazil and Israel. The grapefruit tree itself is a large tree about 10 meters (30 feet) tall, with glossy leaves, white flowers and large, pale yellow fruits with pink flesh.

With its bright, energizing aroma, Grapefruit Essential Oil is a popular choice as a home and personal fragrance. The use of this oil as an air freshener adds a zesty energy to the home and is reputed to improve mood and boost mental energy. Grapefruit oil can be added to a bath or applied directly to the skin for an aromatherapeutic compress or massage provided it is diluted first in a carrier oil. As a guide to dilution, the International Fragrance Association recommends a maximum concentration of 4% of this essential oil in products intended for topical use.

Used in aromatherapy, Grapefruit Essential Oil benefits include enhancing a sense of energy, helping to manage stressful and anxious feelings, and helping to manage feelings of discomfort experienced from stiffness and aches.

Blends With: Grapefruit Pink blends well with other members of the citrus family, Rosemary, Cypress, Lavender, Geranium, Cardamom and generally most spice oils.
