I was honestly nervous about the price and how the quality would measure up to other brands, but this hydrosol has pleasantly surprised me. My kids use it all the time in the bathroom to keep it from stinking, I use it almost every day as a hair detangler and perfume, and I often use it as a room or linen spray in our bedrooms.
If you like the smell of oranges, you’ll love this. I use this when I’m having a hot flash, I keep it in the refrigerator. Just spray and I’m cooled back down.

I love the smell of oranges. I use it for a body spray and smell good all day
This is a fantastic product! It's been a great addition to my bedside table. I love the scent of Neroli, it's such a pleasing and calming oil. I bought the spray attachment so I could spray it on our bed sheets before bed. I highly recommend this product as part of anyone's bedtime routine. I might use this alternately from my usual lavender/frankincense combination. Thanks, JB!
