A petitgrain (also: petit grain or petit-grain) is an oil produced from the leaves and green twigs of trees from the Citrus genus, in this case the bitter orange. We find that the bitter orange petitgrain has a more woody, terpenic, camphoric and darker odor compared to the other more fruity, bright and sweet citrus oils.
