Orange oil is an essential oil made by the cells within the orange’s rind. It consists of more than 90% d-limonene and used in the place of pure d-limonene. Limonene is what gives oranges their familiar scent.
It is used in many household cleaners for fragrance and is also an environmentally friendly and effective solvent. Limonene, when one is exposed to it for long periods of time, can also be a skin irritant when exposure is of pure limonene. So, don’t strike any matches near your fruit bowls!
