Scent: Lovers of citrus and candy- this one is for you! The scent of this exotic oil is sure to make your mouth water. Its bright opening notes are like a mix between lemon, lime, and orange, very reminiscent of candied lemons. After the burst of citrus, it meets with a fresh, floral green facet, and then closes with a soft resinous dry down.
Buddha’s Hand Citron’s unique scent is perfect for fine perfumery- adding a sparkling citrus-y top note, or lending its green floral tones to a middle note composition.
History/About
An ancient citrus fruit native to Asia, Buddha’s Hand Citron is a variety of Citron, so named for its unusual appearance - mimicking an open or closed hand with outstretched ‘fingers’. Its botanical name, Citrus medica var. sarcodactylis, is derived from the Greek sarkos and dactylos meaning "fleshy finger."
The fruit isn’t eaten outright, but the highly aromatic rinds and pith are and used for flavoring foods and beverages.
It’s long been used in Asian cultures for perfumery and religious purposes, and is known to be a symbol of happiness, longevity, and good fortune.
