Petitgrain Organic Essential Oil 10ml
Petitgrain Organic Essential Oil — 10ml
Petitgrain — Citrus aurantium — is steam-distilled from the leaves and twigs of the bitter orange tree, the same plant that yields neroli from its blossoms and bitter orange from its peel. Its name derives from the French for ‘little grains’, a reference to the tiny, unripe fruits that were originally used in its production. This organic expression delivers a fresh, woody, slightly floral aroma with a clean, green, citrusy brightness that is both uplifting and deeply calming. It has been used in traditional medicine and perfumery across the Mediterranean and South America for centuries, and is increasingly valued in natural aromatherapy for its ability to ease anxiety, nervous tension, and insomnia.
