Grapefruit

Grapefruit is a citrus fruit and is a hybrid between Pomelo and Orange, it is said that the first Grapefruit were found growing in Jamaica and spread from there with the help of man who wanted to grow it. Today, the United States is the largest producer of grapefruit. There are both white and red grapefruit and the taste essentially the same, the red ones being somewhat sweeter.

Essential oil for perfume production is obtained by cold pressing of the peel and the scent is fresh and sweet with a hint of citrus.
