The note bursts forth with an immediate, radiant luminosity, a dazzling flash of sunshine in olfactory form. It is intensely bright, sharply zesty, and refreshingly tart, yet possesses an underlying juiciness and a subtle, almost sweet, effervescence that distinguishes it from mere generic lemon. There's a particular crispness, an invigorating cleanliness, without venturing into overtly 'sour' territory. Its texture on the olfactive palate is exhilaratingly vibrant, like a cascade of tiny, sparkling droplets. As a quintessential top note, its initial projection is bold and expansive, a veritable explosion of citrus energy that commands attention. However, its longevity is fleeting, a beautiful meteor streaking across the olfactory sky, quickly receding to leave a clean, airy impression, often paving the way for heart notes to emerge with greater clarity. It possesses a slightly green, almost leafy undertone that hints at the whole fruit, peel and all, rather than just a simplistic pulp.
