An evergreen
tree up to 10m high with glossy dark green leaves and
fragrant white flowers. Essential oil is produced by steam
distillation from the leaves and twigs. Petitgrain is one of
the three oils obtained from the orange tree; the others are
Neroli from the flowers and Orange from the fruit.
Petitgrain oil was once extracted from the green unripe
oranges when they were still the size of cherries, hence the
name Petitgrain or 'little grains". |
