The name Neroli is said to originate from the 17th-century Italian princess, Anne-Marie de la Tremoille, Countess of Nerola. She used the oil as a perfume and to scent her bathwater and gloves. The sweet orange blossom scent has since been used extensively in the perfume and cosmetics industry. Known in some cultures as a symbol of good fortune, Neroli is a traditional wedding flower.
