Petitgrain Essential Oil by doTERRA – 15ml

Petitgrain Essential Oil is derived from the leaves and twigs of the bitter orange tree, which has a long history of use in traditional health practices. Two other essential oils come from the same tree: Neroli from the blossoms and Bitter Orange from the fruit rinds.

Petitgrain oil is widely used in the perfume industry, giving body sprays, lotions, and colognes a fresh and herbaceous note that’s popular among both women and men.

Historically, petitgrain oil was used as a topical cleanser. People also consumed it to support healthy immune and nervous system function.* Emerging scientific evidence supports these and other uses.

By sourcing Petitgrain essential oil from Paraguay through Co-Impact Sourcing®, doTERRA supports needed rural community development projects and provides diversified income for small-scale farmers. Growing bitter orange trees allows farmers to earn income without clearcutting land for crops, protecting the remaining patches of the Atlantic Forest in eastern Paraguay.
