About Italian Citrus Fruits

Italian Citrus Fruits is a perfumery note used to evoke the material or olfactory idea named in a fragrance composition. It may be expressed through a natural extract, a reconstructed accord, or a combination of materials, but its shared purpose is to establish a citrus contour.

Scent Profile

On its own, Italian Citrus Fruits is recognized for a citrus character. Its apparent brightness, warmth, sweetness and dryness can shift substantially with dosage and context, adding depth beside related materials or creating definition against contrasting ones.

Use in Perfumery

Perfumers may use Italian Citrus Fruits as a focal point or as a structural bridge between other notes. Its position in the opening, heart or drydown varies by formula, and the surrounding materials determine whether it reads as vivid, soft, transparent or persistent.
