The note of Petit Grain unfurls with a vibrant, intensely green and slightly bitter citrus aroma, reminiscent of freshly crushed leaves and twigs from the bitter orange tree. It possesses a crisp, clean, and somewhat herbaceous quality, often described as having a "green orange" or "leafy citrus" character. Its initial impression is sharp and invigorating, quickly evolving to reveal subtle woody and floral undertones, particularly a hint of the orange blossom's delicate sweetness, though far less pronounced than neroli. It is highly volatile, typically presenting as a top to heart note, offering excellent projection in its initial burst. Its longevity is moderate, providing a sustained freshness that bridges the gap between fleeting citrus tops and more enduring heart notes. The texture it evokes is dewy and slightly waxy, like a young leaf, rather than juicy or pulpy.
