The Story

Launched in 2020 by Le Labo, Citron 28 Seoul is a fragrance created by perfumer Daphné Bugey. The composition opens with a bright and invigorating lemon note, which contrasts beautifully with the warmth of ginger. As it develops, jasmine adds a soft floral touch, while musk and cedar provide depth and a powdery comfort. Citron 28 Seoul captures the essence of a fresh, crisp morning in Seoul, where the city's vibrant energy is balanced by moments of serene tranquility.

Application Tips

Citron 28 Seoul's lemon top note fades quickly, so apply it liberally to ensure the musky and woody base notes have time to develop. It pairs well with cooler weather but can also be worn during warmer months for a refreshing touch.
