Petitgrain le Bigaradier

While Petitgrain can technically be extracted from different citrus varieties, only the one from the bitter orange tree can be called Bigarade, something some producers are unaware of and mistakenly misname their essential oil.

Essential oil from the same tree produces bitter orange and neroli essential oils. It shares a lot of the same chemical constituents of both oils yet has less of a floral scent. It dramatically influences stress-related nervous energy and can aid in uplifting your mood (1). It has good antiseptic and deodorising properties (2) and is suitable for supporting the immune system (3). It's a great addition to any blend as it lifts it up and adds a happy note while supporting emotional and physical issues.
