Umuthi Petitgrain Pure Essential Oil - 5ML

Umuthi Petitgrain Pure Essential Oil is an essential oil from the leaves of the bitter orange tree, Citrus aurantium . It is widely used in perfumery, especially in eau de cologne style blends, where it adds a fresh, green, citrus-woody character. Petitgrain also works beautifully in skincare, bath products, massage blends, and calming aromatherapy formulations where a refined citrus-leaf note is wanted.

It offers a more leafy, elegant profile than sweet orange, making it useful for blends that need freshness without becoming overly sweet. Why we love it: Petitgrain is a subtle gem in citrus-style blending. It gives the freshness of the bitter orange tree with a greener, more sophisticated edge, making it especially useful for perfumes, body care, and calming diffuser blends.
