Cédrat
The note of Cédrat, or Citron, presents a remarkably bright, intensely zesty, and invigorating aroma, distinct from its more common citrus cousins. It possesses a sharp, almost effervescent quality upon initial encounter, immediately uplifting and crystalline. Unlike lemon, it carries a subtle, sophisticated bitterness and a pronounced green, slightly woody undertone, reminiscent of the peel itself rather than just the juice. Its texture is crisp and clean, never cloying or overly sweet. As a top note, its projection is immediate and vibrant, creating a sparkling opening. Its longevity is typical of a citrus, relatively short-lived, fading gracefully to reveal the heart notes, but leaving a lingering impression of freshness. It lacks the juicy sweetness of orange or mandarin, leaning instead into a more refined, aromatic, and slightly dry profile.
