The essential oil of bitter orange, or bigarade, is obtained by distillation of the young twigs topped with tiny "petit grain"-like fruits in their early stages of development.

Bitter orange is an ester oil par excellence, its dominant biochemical constituent. In aromatic biochemistry, esters harmonize and refocus. It effectively regulates the respiratory and cardiac systems. In synergy, it helps calm spasmodic coughs.

Petitgrain EO's anti-inflammatory action can be used to advantage, reserving it for joint problems of nervous or emotional origin. Thanks to its purifying and anti-inflammatory action, petit grain bigarade EO is a skin tonic that should be reserved for combination and oily skin.
