Product Information
PETITGRAIN ESSENTIAL OIL - CERTIFIED ORGANIC*
With its beautifully floral yet subtly bitter aroma, Organic Petitgrain Essential Oil is a true wellness gem, offering a wealth of benefits for the body and mind.
Derived from the leaves and twigs of the bitter orange tree, Petitgrain is packed with nature’s goodness. High in linalyl acetate and linalool, it boasts antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and deeply calming properties. Renowned for its ability to reduce stress, ease tension, and promote relaxation, it’s a staple in aromatherapy- but its benefits don’t stop there. Petitgrain also shines in skincare, helping to tone, refine pores, balance oily skin, and soothe irritation, making it a go-to for a clear, healthy complexion. Additionally, its natural deodorising effects, muscle-relaxing qualities, and immune-supporting properties add to its versatility in personal care. Its elegant, bittersweet scent is also a favourite in high-end perfumes and colognes!
Whether blending it into skincare formulations or using it in daily wellness rituals, Certified Organic Petitgrain Essential Oil is a must-have for restoring balance, freshness, and tranquility.

See topical dilution guide below for safe topical application - Fast Remedy: Add 1-2 drops of Organic Petitgrain Oi to a tissue and inhale at a distance while ensuring no direct contact with your skin. Alternatively, you can smell the oil directly from the bottle!
