Grapefruit Oil Washed

Description of Grapefruit Oil Washed

A popular essential oil extracted from the peels of the Citrus x paradisi fruit (pink varieties), Grapefruit Oil maintains widespread usage throughout the flavor and fragrance industry. Crisp and tangy, the flavor of this oil is particularly well-suited to sour or citrusy blends, often added to soft drinks, fruit juices, and other canned fruit products. Pink grapefruit oil’s sweet and dry top note eventually transitions into citric, somewhat bitter undertones, creating a unique bouquet of bright, floral, aldehydic notes. In fragrance, pink grapefruit is most commonly added to other citrus ingredients such as lemon, sweet orange, and bitter orange, providing complexity through its high Nootkatone content.
