Italian Blood Orange

Italian blood oranges are a variety of orange with a distinctive deep red or crimson flesh. They have a sweet, slightly tart flavor with notes of raspberry and pomegranate. The blood orange gets its vibrant color from anthocyanins, natural pigments that develop in the fruit when exposed to cool nighttime temperatures during the growing season.

Fragrances featuring Italian blood orange tend to evoke a sense of vibrancy, energy, and zest. The scent is uplifting and can help boost mood and alertness. It's a versatile note that works well in both casual, everyday fragrances as well as more sophisticated, evening-appropriate perfumes. Blood orange can add a touch of Mediterranean flair and sophistication to a fragrance.

Italian blood orange is a popular citrus note used in many fragrances, often as a top or middle note. It provides a bright, juicy, and slightly tart fruity aroma that can add a refreshing quality to perfumes. Blood orange is commonly found in citrus-based scents, as well as in floral, woody, and oriental fragrance families.
