The Bitter Orange tree provides us with three oils. Neroli is the most expensive and is extracted from the blossom. It is said to have gained its name after a16th century princess of Nerola in Italy used the scent as a perfume for her clothes and rooms; Petitgrain oil comes from the leaves or twigs and was once extracted from the green, unripe fruit, the size of cherries - hence petit grain or little grains; Bitter Orange oil is made from expression of the outer peel of the nearly-ripe fruit. All three are Citrus oils from the Rutaceae (herbs, shrubs & trees) family and as such are used with caution due to their photo-toxicity[1].
