Description & Scent Profile:
Distilled from the leaves and young twigs of the lemon tree, Lemon Petitgrain offers a uniquely sophisticated olfactive profile. It balances bright, hesperidic citrus notes with a crisp, green, and subtly floral herbaceous depth. Far softer and more nuanced than peel-expressed citrus oils, this rare botanical acts as a vibrant top-to-heart note in fine fragrance while bringing immediate soothing clarity to a weary mind, busy workspace, or troubled skin.
