The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2018 by Kayali Fragrances, Citrus 08 is a creation by perfumer Gabriela Chelariu that blends bright citrus and aromatic notes with unexpected warmth. The fragrance opens with pink grapefruit and bergamot, their zesty freshness juxtaposed against the earthy green tones of rhubarb and oakmoss. As it settles, Bulgarian rose and damask rose introduce a delicate floral touch, while pink pepper adds a subtle spicy kick that cuts through the sweetness. The base notes of musk and tonka bean provide a warm, enveloping finish.

How to wear it

Citrus 08 has a bright opening that fades within an hour, so apply it liberally at first to capture its full impact. The warm base notes take time to bloom, making this fragrance ideal for layering over light clothing or wearing close to the skin.
