Elegant, refreshing, and uplifting, Petitgrain Essential Oil is steam-distilled from the leaves, twigs, and unripe fruits of the bitter orange tree (Citrus deliciosa). Its tangy, sunny citrus aroma with subtle woody-green notes inspires optimism, self-confidence, and emotional balance, while also supporting skin health and clarity of mind.
A versatile essential oil, Petitgrain softens scars and stretch marks, evens skin texture, and balances excess oil while helping retain moisture in dry areas. Ideal for perfumes, colognes, massage blends, body oils, skincare serums, diffusers, and baths, it provides both aromatic pleasure and therapeutic benefit.
Perfect for diffusing to uplift the spirit, inhaling for mental clarity, or blending in cosmetics and wellness formulations, Petitgrain refreshes the senses, revives the skin, and reinvigorates the spirit.
