(2010) noted that limonene has considerable anti-inflammatory activity. Studies from Lang and Buchbauer (2012) noted that limonene wasa prevalent component in oils that have good antibacterial activity. Orange oil is fresh and adds a lovely top note to blends. Orange oil blends well with Cedarwood, Clary Sage, Rosemary, Nutmeg, Sandalwood
