D-LIMONENE V, orange terpenes, 100 ml

Characteristics

A clear thin liquid with a pleasant dry citrus scent, it is vapor distilled from citrus peels.

D-Limonene, also known as a citrus terpene, is the main chemical component found in cold-pressed peel oils that can be obtained from all edible citrus fruits, especially oranges, lemons and limes. After the first pressing of the skins, it is obtained from the resulting oil by a distillation process.

The two chemical forms of limonene are d-limonene, which is found primarily in orange peels, and L-limonene, which is found primarily in lemon peels. Limonene gets its name from the botanical name for "Lemon" - Citrus limon - due to the abundance of this natural compound in lemon peels.

Due to its wide range of beneficial applications, d-Limonene is one of the most important natural terpenes. With a light, pleasantly dry and refreshing sweet citrus scent, it is prized for its scent and used in fragrances and green cleaners rather than therapeutic applications.
