Did you know?

Although today’s producers distil Petitgrain essential oil from the leaves and young twigs of the bitter orange tree, its name comes from the French words petit (small) and grain (grain or seed). Early perfumers first extracted the oil from the tree’s tiny, unripe fruits—its “little grains.” Later, improved distillation techniques allowed producers to capture the same beautiful aroma from the fragrant leaves and young twigs.

Precautions

Essential oils can offer many benefits when used correctly. Because they are highly concentrated plant extracts, always use them with care and dilute them properly before application. Always perform a patch test before use to check for skin sensitivity. Do not use essential oils as a replacement for medical care.
