Yuzu essential oil, a prized ingredient in perfumery and aromatherapy, originates from Japan, where the fruit has been cultivated since its introduction from China and Tibet between the 6th and 8th centuries. A unique hybrid of the Rutaceae family, yuzu is a cross between mandarin and Ichang papeda, offering a distinctively bright and complex citrus aroma.
The oil is extracted from the zest of the fruit, which can be harvested either green, delivering a sharp, fresh scent, or fully ripe, when it turns yellow and offers a deeper, sweeter fragrance. Yuzu’s scent is vibrant and refreshing, with notes of tart grapefruit, mandarin, and floral undertones, making it an exceptional ingredient in perfumery.
Beyond its aromatic appeal, yuzu essential oil is cherished for its uplifting and calming properties, making it a staple in luxury fragrances and wellness rituals. A true Japanese citrus gem, yuzu captivates the senses with its timeless elegance.
