Grapefruit Pink EO

Use in Perfume:

Grapefruit Pink Essential Oil is a versatile ingredient in perfumery, adding a sweet, fruity, and slightly floral citrus note. Here’s how you can use it effectively:

1. Top Note: Grapefruit pink works beautifully as a top note, providing an initial burst of freshness and energy to your fragrance. Its uplifting quality makes it ideal for bright and cheerful compositions.
2. Blending: Pair it with other citrus oils like bergamot, mandarin, or lime for a vibrant citrus accord. It also complements floral notes (like jasmine or rose), spicy notes (like ginger or cardamom), and woody base notes (like cedarwood or sandalwood).
3. Balance: Use it to soften sharper citrus oils or to add a fruity sweetness to green or herbal blends. Its slightly floral undertone can also enhance the complexity of a fragrance.
4. Fixatives: Combine it with fixatives like vetiver, patchouli, or benzoin to anchor the scent and prolong its longevity.
5. Fragrance Families: Grapefruit pink is a great addition to citrus, fruity, floral, and even chypre fragrance families, adding a lively and refreshing touch.

Here is a comparison of Grapefruit Pink and Grapefruit White essential oils:

Aroma Strength	Softer and warmer	Brighter and more vibrant
Perfumery Use	Adds sweetness and softness to blends	Adds energy and zest to compositions
