Citrus Peel is one of the most invigorating and essential notes in perfumery, prized for its crisp, sunlit freshness and natural energy. Extracted from the rinds of fruits such as lemon, orange, bergamot, and grapefruit, it captures the pure essence of zest — bright, lively, and effervescent.
Its aroma is sharp, juicy, and slightly bitter, evoking the scent of freshly peeled fruit. Used primarily as a top note, Citrus Peel creates an immediate burst of radiance that awakens the senses and sets a vibrant tone for the entire composition. Its freshness fades gracefully, leaving behind a clean and joyful impression.
Perfumers use Citrus Peel to bring light and movement to a fragrance. It blends beautifully with herbs and green notes for natural vitality, with florals for a luminous lift, or with woods and musks for modern contrast. In colognes and summer scents, it’s the cornerstone of brightness and balance.
Emotionally, Citrus Peel evokes optimism, clarity, and happiness. Its scent feels like sunlight — refreshing, energising, and full of life.
In modern perfumery, Citrus Peel represents simplicity and brilliance. Its zesty, uplifting aroma adds sparkle and freshness to any composition, embodying the essence of light, vitality, and pure olfactory joy.
