yuzu

A Japanese citrus that smells like a mandarin and a grapefruit had a cold, slightly floral child. Brighter than lemon, less sweet than orange, with a faint herbal edge. Yuzu gives a fragrance a clean, modern lift in the opening: crisp, almost mineral. Common in newer Japanese and minimalist perfumery. Like all citrus, it burns off fast: shines in the first thirty minutes.

Also known as: japanese yuzu, yuzu peel, citrus junos
