Organic Ingredients

100% petitgrain (Citrus deliciosa) essential oil.

“This oil [Petitgrain] combines an attractive price with a very pleasant fragrance. It is antispasmodic, sedative, and anxiolytic qualities. It calms the high strung.”
~ Kurt Schnaubelt, Advanced Aromatherapy

“The spirit of petitgrain is embodied in gentle strength, encouraging positive resolutions and outcomes at difficult times. It enables us to see ahead and to forge a link with our inner truth, helping us understand that in our personal strength comes truth.”
~ Valerie Ann Worwood, Aromatherapy for the Soul

“Quality: Orange leaf bigarade [another name for Petitgrain] maybe adulterated with cheaper Paraguay oil, which itself is frequently adulterated [Kubeczka 2002].”
~ Robert Tisserand and Rodney Young, Essential Oil Safety, Second Edition

“The petitgrain fragrance is fresh, flowery, revitalizing – slightly resembling neroli. Almost every cologne water contains petitgrain oil, which is usually produced from bitter orange. Petitgrain stimulates the mind, supports memory, gladdens the heart, and tends to be relaxed and balancing.”
~ Susanne Fischer-Rizzi, The Complete Aromatherapy Handbook
