Steam-distilled from the leaves and twigs of the Seville bitter orange tree, Petitgrain offers a refreshing, green-woody scent with soft floral undertones. It’s a favorite in perfumery for its balancing and uplifting aroma, but this oil brings so much more to the table than scent alone.

When diffused or used in room sprays, Petitgrain helps calm the emotional rollercoaster and restore mental clarity, making it perfect for moments of overwhelm or anxious looping thoughts. Its fresh, clean energy can shift the mood of a space, bringing in a sense of lightness and focus.

When added to skincare products, Petitgrain helps balance oily or blemish-prone skin, promoting a clearer, more even complexion. And if you're feeling uncomfortable after a heavy meal or emotional stress has your stomach tied in knots, a dilution of Petitgrain in carrier oil can help gently soothe digestive tension.
