Citronitrile is a vibrant, high-impact aromatic molecule known for its sharp, zesty citrus character. Often described as delivering a “crispy citrus punch,” it provides a sparkling top note that adds freshness and energy to perfume compositions. With its lively lemony-green profile, Citronitrile is especially valued in modern perfumery for creating uplifting, clean, and effervescent openings in citrus, floral, and aquatic fragrances.


This material blends seamlessly with aldehydes, green notes, florals, and other citrus elements like bergamot or grapefruit. It enhances brightness and imparts a long-lasting citrus lift that balances well with musks, light woods, and herbal components. Its tenacity and clarity make it a versatile tool in fine fragrances, functional perfumes, and personal care products such as shampoos, soaps, and body sprays.


Outside of perfumery, Citronitrile finds use in household products, where a fresh, clean scent is desired. Its ability to inject energy and crispness into a formula makes it a favorite among creative perfumers and product formulators seeking to capture the essence of citrus with a modern twist.
