Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Fall
Also Works:
Winter

Citron 28 features citrus and herbal notes that make it suitable for the mild temperatures of spring and fall. The freshness is less suited to the intense heat of summer or the cold of winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office
Also Works:
Casual Formal

With its moderate projection and fresh citrus profile, Citron 28 is apt for casual wear and the office. It may be understated for formal occasions and lacks the dynamics for sporty activities.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Citral Geranial from Lemon

Other declarable allergens

  • Lemongrass Cymbopogon Flexuosus Oil from Lemongrass
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Citron 28 is a bright, crisp fragrance that opens with a rush of vibrant lemon and lime, mellowed by the herbaceous freshness of ginger and lemongrass. Cedar and musk enrich the base, grounding the composition. Vetiver adds an earthy depth beneath the citrus, while jasmine lends a soft floral touch to the heart, rounding out a clean, zesty scent that wears well in warm weather.
