When I first started using dōTERRA I was having one of those days where my bed did not want to let me go but my responsibilities were calling and I had to listen. You know those kinds of days, right? I wanted to have a good day even though I had a rough start. My friends had told me about some diffuser blends and I tried out my first blend of Wild Orange, Grapefruit, and Lime.
It was awesome! I felt immediately uplifted in a way I did not expect. I suddenly had so much motivation and I was happy and wanted to shout for joy! It turned my day around and started my habit of diffusing every day.
Wild Orange oil is one of dōTERRA’s most popular oils—and with good reason! Not only does Wild Orange oil have a variety of uses, but its invigorating, energizing aroma is hard to resist. One of my favorite ways to use Wild Orange is to add a few drops to my drinking water for a flavorful beverage.
I also love to combine a few drops of it with water in a spray bottle * and use the mixture as an all-purpose spray for cleaning the surfaces around my home. As a citrus oil, it has cleansing properties that make it useful for purifying surfaces like countertops and tables throughout the home. Not only do I love having clean surfaces, but the all-purpose spray leaves behind a lovely citrus aroma!

Uses and Benefits
- Possibly one of the most distinct characteristics of Wild Orange essential oil is its powerful scent. The strong, sweet, citrus aroma of Wild Orange makes it useful for purifying the air, promoting and energizing an uplifting environment, or simply creating a pleasant smell in the home. To harness the purifying power and aroma of Wild Orange, place a few drops on your air filter at home. This will improve your home’s scent while simultaneously purifying the air.
- The purifying properties of Wild Orange are not only useful for cleansing the air, but you can also use the oil to cleanse surfaces around the home. Similar to Lemon, Wild Orange can be used to wipe down frequently used surfaces around the home when you want to cleanse and purify them. Not only is Wild Orange helpful for purifying your kitchen table, countertop, or anything your family might use frequently throughout the day, but it can also be useful when cleaning the bathroom. Put three drops of Wild Orange in your bathroom sink or bathtub drains to help dispel any unpleasant odors or grime. Be sure to let the oil evaporate before you run the water.

- People love the invigorating, uplifting scent of Wild Orange.

For an energizing boost, dispense one to two drops of Wild Orange in the palm of your hand along with equal parts Peppermint and Frankincense. Then, rub the combination on the back of your neck to maintain uplifting feelings. If you want to feel energized first thing in the morning, add a few drops of Wild Orange to your body wash for an invigorating shower.
- Wild Orange oil has the ability to support the immune system when needed most.* During cold weather months, consider adding one or two drops of Wild Orange to a capsule to help support a healthy immune system.* If you often drink tea, add a few drops of Wild Orange to your favorite tea when you want to support your immune system.* You can also simply add a drop of Wild Orange to a glass of water every day to add flavor and promote overall health.*

I haven’t tried this one yet but think I will be ordering it soon if it boosts energy.
I love the smell of this stuff – on most days, it really makes me happy if I’m grumpy! I even make my 4 year old use it when he’s getting super grumpy… of course, now he’s trying to use it allllll the time! If he had his way, it would be completely gone in 10 minutes!
Sounds like my house!
