Green pomelo, also known as the Chinese grapefruit, is a large citrus fruit that belongs to the Rutaceae family. It closely resembles the grapefruit but is usually larger and has a thicker, greener, and less smooth skin. The flesh inside can range from pale yellow to deep pink, depending on the variety.
The scent profile of green pomelo is uniquely invigorating and complex. It features a bright, refreshing top note characterized by a sweet, citrusy aroma that is milder and sweeter than that of its cousin, the grapefruit. Beneath the initial burst of citrus, the scent has subtle floral undertones—hints of jasmine and rose can often be detected, making it a popular choice in the world of perfumery and aromatherapy.
This nuanced fragrance combined with its clean, fresh finish, enhances its appeal not only as a fruit but also in various fragrances and products seeking a vibrant yet gentle citrus element. The scent of green pomelo encapsulates a blend of zestiness and mild sweetness, creating a soothing yet energizing aroma ideal for uplifting the spirit and rejuvenating the senses.
