Appearance

olive-greenish to green-orange colored, mobile liquid

Odor

The oil has a peculiar dry, almost bitter undertone after a brief and fresh topnote which is somewhat reminiscent of the topnote of petitgrain bigarade oil.

Uses in perfumery

Sweet orange petitgrain oil could serve as a perfume material in areas where other petitgrain oils are not available, and where sweet orange is abundant.

Production

The oil is produced by steam distillation of leaves and twigs from sweet orange trees.
