*FCF = Furocoumarin Free, designates a rectified essential oil from which the furocoumarins have been removed. Furocoumarins are a class of organic compounds that are produced by a variety of plants. They produce toxic reactions to skin and DNA.

This FCF Bergamot essential oil benefits from cold pressed extraction which has then been re-distilled, "fractionated" Fractionation is a method of re-distilling the inital yield of oil material so as to purify and/or remove unwanted elements (in this case the Bergaptene which contains the furocoumarins in Bergamot oil)
