Citron

Citron is a bright, zesty citrus note derived from the peel of the citron fruit. It has a sharp, refreshing aroma with hints of lemon, lime, and grapefruit. Citron is prized for its ability to add a vibrant, uplifting quality to fragrances.

Citron fragrances tend to have an invigorating, energizing effect, often evoking feelings of freshness and optimism. They are well-suited for daytime wear, especially in warmer weather, as the bright, zesty notes can help uplift the mood. Citron works well in both cologne-style fragrances as well as more complex, layered perfumes.

Citron is commonly used as a top note in fragrances, where its bright, zesty character can provide an energetic opening. It is often paired with other citrus notes like lemon or bergamot, as well as green, floral, or woody accords. Citron is a versatile ingredient that can be found in a wide range of fragrance families, from fresh colognes to more complex, layered perfumes.
