The Sicilian citron, known as Citrus medica, is a fragrant citrus fruit native to the regions around Sicily and the Mediterranean. Its distinctiveness lies in its large, bumpy rind and minimal pulp or juice compared to other citrus fruits. The scent profile of Sicilian citron is predominantly citrusy, imbued with a highly concentrated, slightly floral and intensely fresh aroma. Its zest, which contains aromatic oils, encapsulates a sharp, clean scent reminiscent of freshly peeled lemons, but with a more nuanced and less acidic undertone. Used frequently in perfumery and culinary dishes, Sicilian citron offers a unique olfactory component that is both uplifting and pure, evoking the sunny, lush landscapes of its native environment.
