The Great Neroli Oil Rush

published 19 March 2012

What is Neroli?

It may sound like a new cooking ingredient, but the source of our scent collection has been around for centuries. It’s derived from the white blossom of the bitter orange tree and its soothing effect on the nervous system means it has become prevalent in treating anxiety, meaning you may receive twice the benefits when splashing all over.

He started out life as a movie writer for numerous (now defunct) magazines and soon found himself online - editing a gaggle of gadget sites, including TechRadar, Digital Camera World and Tom's Guide UK. At Shortlist you'll find him mostly writing about movies and tech, so no change there then.
