Cold Pressed Fingered Citron 5ml (Cold Pressed)

Where the distilled essence is saintly and profound, the cold-pressed Fingered Citron is sunlight itself — bright, jubilant, and free. Pressed from freshly harvested fruits — still glistening with morning dew  — this version captures the volatile top notes in their full effervescent glory. This is the scent not of temples, but of open courtyards, of market stalls filled with laughter, of herbalists drying citrus in woven bamboo trays.

“The hand of Buddha points not only to stillness, but also to joy.” — Yuan Dynasty proverb
Here the bright, zesty rind bursts forth with an almost euphoric citrus-floral energy. There are glints of green freshness, hints of gingery lift, and a delicious ghost of candied peel — reminiscent of the preserved sweet 佛手糕 enjoyed by children and elders alike. This is a citrus that dances on the skin, opening a perfume composition with gleaming clarity, length, and vivacity.

In perfumery, this is a high note of distinction — more rare than lemon, more characterful than yuzu. In materia medica, it is said:“佛手，治郁开怀，味甘而不寒。” “Fingered citron relieves melancholy, opens the heart; sweet in taste, yet not cooling — a rare harmony.”

Use it to breathe brightness into a blend, or carry it alone as an ode to citrus made sacred.
