About frosted orange
Frosted orange as a fragrance note captures the invigorating and sweet essence of orange with a cool, icy twist, reminiscent of a chilled citrus dessert or a fresh, frosty morning in an orange grove. This note combines the juicy, tangy aroma of oranges with a crisp, refreshing undertone, creating a lively and exhilarating scent. Commonly used in perfumery to add a vibrant, uplifting top note, frosted orange brings a sparkling, joyful character to fragrances. It is especially cherished for its ability to evoke the freshness of citrus while adding a unique, cool nuance that distinguishes it from the typical warmth of citrus notes.

Perfumer's Tips
Typically used as a top note to introduce freshness and a burst of energy at the opening of the fragrance. It works well in combination with other citrus notes for a more complex citrus opening, or with floral and woody notes to create depth.
