Citrus dominant scents are surprisingly tricky to make because citrus essential oils tend to be drying to the skin, and some of them (like Bergamot and Lime) can be phototoxic in larger concentrations. That’s why I have not made a citrus bomb of a scent until now.
After 34 years of creating, I finally feel confident enough to make a citrus perfume. Citrus Revelation bursts onto the scene with juicy Lime and Grapefruit. It reveals its sweetness with Blood Orange tempered with Fig. This new creation for 2024 finds its soul with a sweet breath of Tangerine and Tonka bean, lingering well beyond what you might expect from such a fruity blend.
It’s such a sweet, pretty scent and it dries down to a warmer sweetness, almost a little cinnamon-y. On my body chemistry, that is. I do the wrist smell check throughout the day, just to smell it.—LM, Illinois
