Just like the fruit, Orange essential oil has many benefits and smells so good in your diffuser or mixed with other complementing oils.
You’ll find that orange oil:
✔helps depression and low mood because it’s naturally uplifting
✔promotes clear thinking and imparts joy
✔cleans and purifies the air due to its antifungal, antiviral, and antibacterial properties
✔calms the nerves as it invigorates the senses and is said to be a mild aphrodisiac

What Is The Difference Between Orange, Wild Orange, and Sweet Orange Essential Oil?
Sweet orange essential oil is known to most as simply “orange essential oil”.
However, the name “sweet orange” helps distinguish it from other varieties of orange essential oils, such as bitter orange.
Wild Orange tends to be a little more tart in scent but generally, you can interchange them in diffuser blends.
As with all diffuser blends, it takes some experimenting to discover your favorites.
Is Orange Oil Safe For Dogs?
According to TheBark.com the odor of orange is to most dogs like the odor of trash to most humans. So if your dog hangs out in another room when you have the diffuser going you’ll know why.
