Revitalize with a gentle boost of energy. Our proprietary fragrance blend featuring bergamot essential oil is designed to promote the release of endorphins, a neurotransmitter in the brain known as a feel-good chemical. This neurotransmitter is associated with Gamma brainwaves, which are emitted when we are in a heightened state of awareness. With its citrusy profile, Elixir is a purposeful aroma to light and encourage a sense of revival. The Studies: Human:Inhalation of bergamot essential oil has been clinically linked to improved mood and reduced stress in both workplace and healthcare settings.¹ Studies report increases in positive affect and reductions in anxiety, often accompanied by shifts in EEG patterns toward heightened alertness.² Bergamot aromatherapy has also been associated with activation of endorphin pathways, contributing to its uplifting and energizing effects.³ Human EEG work indicates that stimulating citrus oils, including bergamot, can enhance gamma brainwave activity — the state linked with creativity, integration, and peak mental performance.⁴ Preclinical:Animal and cellular studies show bergamot’s volatile compounds (notably limonene and linalool) modulate neurotransmitter systems, including dopaminergic and opioid pathways, which are closely tied to endorphin release and reward signaling.⁵ These mechanisms support the energizing and mood-elevating qualities long attributed to bergamot in aromatherapy.
