Cedrat Essential Oil

Adam Michael has this to say “Cedrat essential oil is produced from the fruit (peel) that is chiefly grown and sold within Sicily. In its fruit form and having travelled Italy extensively now, I find this fruit is found readily as candy fruit or candy cedrat which is used as an ingredient for making cakes and deserts. Nice to look at and it tastes delicious however I still prefer squeezing the juice and adding it to freshly squeezed orange juice, the result is a delicious thirst quenching drink. The aroma of this essential oil is as you would imagine it to be, very zesty, incredibly fresh and light, similar to lemons and limes with lots of sweetness but softer and rounded.

This cedrat essential oil is fantastic for the aroma diffusers, filling the air with an aroma that everyone is sure to appreciate, especially children. For perfumery use this material is an exquisite top note, pairing splendidly with bergamot and lime, imparts freshness within florals, offers interesting effects used within boozy accords and for me I would consider this an essential material like bergamot for communicating a romance and love that I feel for Italy in the form of perfume. I write it quite a lot but this truly is a beautiful material and well worth trying.”
