Description
Unlike all other types of orange oil, Orange Essence Oil is extracted from the juices of sweet oranges, rather than their peels. This process creates an incredibly intense sweetness, with a zesty tang that heavily resembles the fruit’s own flesh. This juicy oil is used for a variety of orange-flavored products, from soft drinks to sherbet to hard candies. Its intense citrusy odor also makes it a staple of old-fashioned colognes and male perfumes, as the fruity nuance of its sweetness pairs exceptionally well with more aldehydic ingredients.

Latest market information
Sep 30th, 2026
Orange Essence Oil has remained relatively steady, even as Orange Oil, Terpene and D-Limonene pricing has moved around it. Supply is tied more closely to juice processing volumes than folding activity. Demand remains, but is more sluggish than we would typically see at this time of year. Availability is comfortable for now, but lower overall orange processing keeps supply worth watching.
