Smells of: bright lemony citrus
Role: top note

Citron Oil opens with a bright, zesty lemon-like aroma that is fresh and uplifting, immediately reminiscent of sunlit citrus groves. As it develops, a slightly herbal and green undertone emerges, adding complexity and depth to the initial burst of freshness. In a formula, it acts as a vibrant top note that can enhance the overall brightness and liveliness of a fragrance, making it particularly effective in citrus blends or fresh colognes. It pairs well with other citrus oils like bergamot and grapefruit, as well as with green notes to create a refreshing and invigorating effect. The typical usage in this catalogue ranges from 0.314% to 1.92%, with a common dose around 0.640%.
