Grapefruit Zest

Grapefruit zest is a bright and citrusy fragrance note with a fresh, slightly bitter scent profile that carries subtle green and fruity undertones. Its aroma is vibrant, tangy, and energizing, adding a lively and refreshing quality to perfumes. Grapefruit zest imparts a crisp, zesty character and is often used as a top note to bring a sharp, invigorating opening to fragrance compositions. It pairs beautifully with floral, green, and woody notes, contributing to fragrances that are modern, clean, and full of zest.

History & Production: Grapefruit zest, derived from the outer peel of the grapefruit, is known for its aromatic oils and bright citrus scent. The essential oil is typically extracted through cold pressing to preserve the fresh, natural aroma of the zest. In perfumery, grapefruit zest is valued for its ability to add a fresh, tangy depth that enhances the clarity and brightness of fragrances, evoking a sense of energy, sunshine, and refreshing vitality.
