Orange peels smell wonderful!

I just had three miniature oranges with my dinner this evening. They were nice and sweet and I really enjoyed eating them.
But my enjoyment didn’t end with the eating. That’s because I didn’t just throw the orange peels away. I began to squeeze them. That's what I'm doing now, sitting here squeezing orange peels.
For me the smell that comes when an orange peel is squeezed is heavenly. It smells so fresh and clean; and of course, citrusy. I love it!
Then, of course, once you have squeezed the peel, that smell stays on your hand for a while. And there’s no mess or greasiness. Just that clean, fresh smell to make you think of warm days on a tropic beach with a cold citrus drink by your side.
Orange peels are great!

Indeed, orange peels do smell good! I also enjoy the smell of lemon, I like to rub down my kitchen sink with the rest of the lemon after squeezing and juicing. Then, I throw it down the garbage disposal to make it smell clean.

You can also dry the skins and use them as fragrant firelighters
