Description
Petitgrain essential oil is derived from the bitter orange tree, which has a long history of use in traditional health practices. The oil has also been used for cleaning purposes. Petitgrain essential oil is widely used in the perfume industry, giving body sprays, fragrances, lotions, and colognes a fresh, herbaceous note that is popular among both women and men.
By sourcing Petitgrain oil from Paraguay through our Co-Impact Sourcing® initiative, doTERRA is able to support needed rural community development projects and provide diversified income for small-scale farmers.
