Citrus perfumes are loved for their freshness and clarity. They often open with sparkling top notes such as lemon, bergamot, mandarin, grapefruit or bitter orange, then soften into aromatic herbs, white florals, musk, woods or amber. This makes citrus fragrances feel clean and wearable without necessarily being simple.

A citrus fragrance can be sharp and zesty, green and aromatic, soft and musky, or sunlit and Mediterranean. At Vault Beauty, our citrus fragrance edit is ideal for anyone looking for a fresh everyday perfume, a clean summer scent, or a bright fragrance that feels polished without being overpowering.
