This petitgrain essential oil is sourced directly from a small, certified organic farm located in Morocco. In this desert-like landscape, the plant, which is native to the region, has optimal growing conditions. The stimulating climate, with its contrast between very cold temperatures at night and hot, dry winds during the day, allows for the development of particularly high concentrations of valuable components and aromas. The essential oil is extracted on-site via steam distillation directly after harvesting, in compliance with the highest quality standards. The experienced producers use a very gentle distillation method with low water pressure, which leads to the extraction of almost all the valuable plant substances.
This essential oil is sourced from a renowned and certified producer based in Valréas in northern Provence, France. The company was founded in 1980 and owns several essential oil plantations and farms all over the world. The origin and quality of the plants are well-documented. The company ensures that the highest standards are maintained and works professionally and passionately to produce excellent essential oils.
The oils are produced from freshly harvested plant materials via steam distillation. The experienced producers use a very gentle distillation method with low water pressure, which leads to the extraction of almost all the valuable plant substances. Their products are certified organic according to French EcoCert standards.
The bitter orange tree belongs to the Rutaceae family. It is a spiny evergreen tree with a round crown, and grows up to 10m tall. It bears white flowers from late spring to summer, from which its fruits then begin to grow. The fruits are spherical, orange in colour, and have rough skin and bitter flesh. The tree is native to South East Asia as well as the Mediterranean region, but is now cultivated in other appropriate climates, including in Madagascar. The aromas can be found in the fruit peels, as well as the flowers (neroli) and leaves (petitgrain).
The refreshing, gently tart citrus scent has a stimulating effect. It brings good mood and releases tension.
