Lemon Leaf, botanically known as Citrus limon folium, derives from the leaves of the lemon tree, widely cultivated in temperate and tropical regions. Its fragrance is distinctly green and subtly citrus, less tangy than the lemon fruit but enriched with floral and herbaceous notes. In perfumery, Lemon Leaf is utilized for its fresh, invigorating quality, often incorporated into the fresh, green, and citrus fragrance families. Extracted typically via steam distillation, this method captures the essence of lemon leaves, preserving their vibrant, green citrus nuances and ensuring the aromatic compounds are effectively retained. Lemon Leaf adds a crisp freshness to fragrances, providing a natural, leafy greenness that enhances floral and woody notes, commonly used in colognes and unisex fragrances to evoke the essence of outdoor spaces and sunny days.
