Primary Benefits

• Adds a fresh, herbaceous fragrance to body sprays, lotions, and colognes.

Product Overview

Petitgrain essential oil is extracted from the leaves and twigs of the bitter orange tree, known for its use in traditional wellness practices. This tree produces three distinct oils: Petitgrain from its leaves and twigs, Neroli from its blossoms, and Bitter Orange from cold-pressed rinds.

Petitgrain is popular in the perfume industry for its crisp, herbaceous scent, enhancing products like colognes, lotions, and body sprays, appealing to both men and women. Through doTERRA’s Co-Impact Sourcing® program in Paraguay, this oil supports rural communities by providing sustainable income for small farmers, helping to protect the remaining Atlantic Rainforest by offering alternatives to deforestation.
