“This oil [Petitgrain] combines an attractive price with a very pleasant fragrance. It is antispasmodic, sedative, and anxiolytic qualities. It calms the high strung.”
~ Kurt Schnaubelt, Advanced Aromatherapy 

“The spirit of petitgrain is embodied in gentle strength, encouraging positive resolutions and outcomes at difficult times. It enables us to see ahead and to forge a link with our inner truth, helping us understand that in our personal strength comes truth.”
~ Valerie Ann Worwood, Aromatherapy for the Soul
 

“Quality: Orange leaf bigarade [another name for Petitgrain] maybe adulterated with cheaper Paraguay oil, which itself is frequently adulterated [Kubeczka 2002].”
~ Robert Tisserand and Rodney Young, Essential Oil Safety, Second Edition 

“The petitgrain fragrance is fresh, flowery, revitalizing – slightly resembling neroli. Almost every cologne water contains petitgrain oil, which is usually produced from bitter orange. Petitgrain stimulates the mind, supports memory, gladdens the heart, and tends to be relaxed and balancing.”
~ Susanne Fischer-Rizzi, The Complete Aromatherapy Handbook

How do we love thee, orange tree? Let us count the ways. 

Our hearts and noses are filled with gratitude for the many aromatic gifts of the generous orange tree. The hypnotic floral fantasy of Neroli is produced by steam distilling the orange tree’s fragrant white flowers, and opulent Orange Blossom Absolute uses a solvent extraction method on those same fragrant flowers to capture a richer, thicker, and more viscous essence that has incredible tenacity in perfumery. Twiggy-tangy Petitgrain oil is a steam distillation of the orange tree’s leaves and stems, and it is perfectly poised to refresh the senses, revive the skin, and reinvigorate the spirit. Cold-pressed orange peels release bright and sunny Orange Essential Oil used as fresh, sparkling notes in perfumes and is nearly always used as a top note. Neroli Fleurs sur Petitgrain is a captivating co-distillation of Neroli blossoms with the twigs and leaves of Petitgrain to create an enchanting, super sensual scent.
