Grapefruit in Velixir perfumes
Tart and juicy with a bitter edge; grapefruit peel oil gives a sparkling, slightly sulphurous opening.
Grapefruit is the citrus that smells most like the pith as well as the fruit, which gives it a bitter, almost green sharpness. Perfumers use it for a modern, crisp opening and it pairs well with ginger, mint and woody bases.
