Lemon Terpenes
Naturals Top Note CAS 68917-33-9
A fresh juicy lemon top note that is light and zesty and carries the bright peel character of the whole oil with far less depth. It is the volatile hydrocarbon fraction recovered when lemon oil is concentrated, so it lifts quickly and leaves little sweet body behind.
