Citrus accords

1 perfumes

Citrus accords offer a vibrant, effervescent opening, characterized by zesty lemon peel, tart grapefruit, and a crisp, sun-drenched neroli brightness. Belonging to the Hesperidic family, these notes provide an immediate sense of clarity and revitalization. In high-end compositions, they pair naturally with the spicy, berry-like nuance of pink pepper, which adds a sophisticated, dry heat to the initial spray, while earthy vetiver grounds the composition with a woody, root-like depth. These accords are essential for the Gulf climate; they act as a cooling, refreshing veil against the intense heat of the desert sun. Arab houses masterfully utilize this blend to bridge the gap between a sharp, modern top note and the traditional, heavy base of oud or amber, ensuring the fragrance remains wearable and elegant throughout the day.
