Lemon Zest
The aroma of the note is immediately sharp, piercing, and intensely bright, like a burst of pure sunshine. It's effervescent and almost sparkling on the nose, conjuring the sensation of tiny bubbles popping. There's a distinct zesty quality, often described as "grated peel," which differentiates it from the simple sourness of lemon juice. It carries a subtle underlying bitterness and a faint green, almost waxy nuance, indicative of the oils extracted from the rind rather than the pulp. Its intensity is high upon initial application, projecting widely and creating an immediate fresh impression. As a quintessential top note, its longevity is relatively brief but impactful, dissipating to make way for heart notes while leaving a lingering whisper of clean vibrancy.
