In May, doTERRA offered its loyal customers a free Wild Orange essential oil and oh my god – it’s definitely up there with my favourite essential oils! I didn’t think I would like it so much, and with so many uses and benefits for the mind, body and even home, it’s no wonder Wild Orange essential oil is one of doTERRA’s top-selling single oils.

Aromatic Description & Source of Wild Orange
Wild Orange is sweet, fresh, and citrus. It is collected from the peel of the orange in South America (Brazil) through a cold pressed method.
How to use doTERRA Wild Orange Essential Oil
As the summer heat is kicked in here in Kathmandu my energy levels dropped and this means my productivity too!
So I started to blend doTERRA’s Wild Orange essential oil with doTERRA Peppermint essential oil in the diffuser and I keep it near me whilst working. Before I know it, I’m working through the ‘post-lunch dips’ into the evening! Check out these Summer Essential Oil Blends for some inspiration
I also add Wild Orange essential oil to my cleaning products – especially recently in my floor detergent for wooden floors. The aroma is absolutely invigorating. I blended Wild Orange with doTERRA’s Cinnamon essential oils – an oil I thought was only for the Christmassy kind of scent – I was wrong!

This was so interesting! Thanks
Thanks for the info! I have this type of oil and wasn’t sure how to use it. Great post!
Oh great! I love it … it also gives me that nostalgic invigorating freshly squeezed sweet orange aroma.
I use doTERRA orange oil that is a digestive tonic and can be massaged on to the skin with a carrier oil. Are wild orange and orange the same oils, Hannah?
Hi Julia, yes wild orange can be used as a digestive tonic and can be massaged with a carrier oil into the skin (please be careful not go to in the sun after applying it on the skin). doTERRA have one essential oil Wild Orange (Citrus sinensis).
