Several essential oils are coming from this tree:
- petitgrain bigarade EO (leaves) whose main properties are close to that of the fine lavender EO.
- neroli EO (flower): it is recognized for its anti-anxiety and anti-depressant properties superior to the first one.

I have been using petitgrain essential oil for several months now. I put a couple of drops on a handkerchief at night and put it under my pillow. The faint perfume stays with me all night. I love it !!
