What does Yuzuzest TEC smell like?
A Givaudan speciality base listed as citrus, mandarin, grapefruit and yuzu over a juicy tropical fruit background. It combines the sweet-peel facets of mandarin and grapefruit with the dry, powerful character of Japanese yuzu, so it reads as a finished citrus top rather than a single peel oil. Supplied pre-diluted in triethyl citrate, which makes it easy to weigh and gives it a longer, less volatile citrus opening than a cold-pressed oil. In a formula it is the ready-made yuzu accord: dose it as the whole head note of a cologne or a fresh floral instead of building the citrus from separate zest materials.
