More Details

Petitgrain essential oil is fresh and zesty with a green, citrus aroma.

Aromatically, Petitgrain is a middle note essential oil, the main body and balance of a blend, meaning its scent will last a few hours. It blends well with Cypress, Frankincense or Orange.

Also known as Orange Leaf, Petitgrain essential oil is obtained from the aromatic leaves of the Bitter Orange Tree. The flowers produce Neroli. The tree was originally native to China, although nowadays it also thrives in the hot climates of southern France, Algeria, Spain and Paraguay. The leaves are speckled with tiny sacs of essential oil that you can see clearly if you hold a leaf up to the light.
