An intensely aromatic ingredient, the bitter orange is an icon of the perfume industry. With deliciously sweet and zesty notes of citrus, bitter orange is an exceptionally versatile note—adding an unmatched freshness to floral fragrances, and most commonly used in Eau de Colognes and Chypres. The bitter orange tree provides an array of sensual possibilities: the neroli/orange blossom and petitgrain extracts derive from the one singular tree but add a sweet freshness to endless accords.
