Yuzu (Citrus junos) Organic Essential Oil

Certified Organic Yuzu (Citrus junos) Essential Oil is a fruit native to Japan, traditionally used in cleansing and strengthening baths during the New Year. This unique citrus fruit provides a sparkling, fresh, and fruity essential oil that supports immunity and helps restore natural vitality.

Depending on the composition, yuzu oil can have a calming or energizing effect, but it always brings a sense of optimism and inner lightness.
Our organic Yuzu essential oil is extracted by steam distillation from the fresh skins of ripe fruit, ripening in sunny Japanese orchards. Its richness in limonene and γ-terpinene (over 85%) gives it cleansing, immunostimulating, and antioxidant properties—making it perfect for winter rituals, inhalations, or immune-boosting baths.

In my opinion, it's one of the most unique citrus oils – emotionally profound, yet light and radiant. It has something that neither orange nor tangerine possess – a subtle hint of sunny coolness, somewhere between freshness and calm. It's not as sweet as an orange nor as tart as a lemon – it has a more rounded, elegant aroma, which in perfumery is perceived as a luxurious citrus.
