Petit Grain, is French and means "small seeds" the name aim at the essential oil Petit Grain was first made in the skin of the unripe Bitter Orange Fruit. Petit Grain originated from the same trees as Neroli, but not the same part.

Petit Grain is the oil from the leaves and twigs from the Bitter Orange tree and is used almost exclusively to perfumes. Petit Grain gives the strongest of all citrus scents but is like Neroli oil pretty special. The scent is reminiscent of rosemary together with a fresh citrus scent. The scent feels bittersweet, dry and warm with wood tones.
