Fresh Citrus
Bright, clean and immediate
Citrus fragrances open on cold-pressed peel oils — bergamot, lemon, mandarin, grapefruit, neroli — which give an instant lift the moment the spray lands. They are the most legible perfumes on skin: nobody has to work out what they are smelling.
Because peel oils are volatile, citrus compositions are usually anchored by something quieter underneath, such as white musk, vetiver or a light woody base. That anchor is what decides whether a citrus scent disappears after an hour or carries through the afternoon.
Typical notes: Bergamot · Lemon · Mandarin · Grapefruit · Neroli · Petitgrain · White musk · Vetiver
Wear it: Daytime, heat, offices and travel. Reapply once around midday — citrus is meant to feel freshly sprayed.
Best for: Anyone who wants to smell clean and awake rather than perfumed.
