Petitgrain Sicily Essential Oil

Petitgrain Sicily Essential Oil is steam distilled from the leaves and twigs of the bitter orange, Citrus aurantium var. amara, grown in Italy. This petitgrain oil smells like orange blossoms but less floral, more herbaceous and woody, with a bitter undertone — a fresh, versatile note beloved in cologne and fine perfumery.

At Kush Aroma Exports, our Sicilian petitgrain is steam distilled from selected leaves and twigs to preserve its fresh, orange-leaf character. As one of India's leading essential oil manufacturers — a trusted essential oil manufacturer, supplier and exporter, we supply every batch with verifiable purity.
