Pomelo
Pomelo suggests spacious, juicy citrus with a pale, slightly floral sweetness and a soft bitter-pith edge. It often feels rounder and less aggressive than a sharp grapefruit accord.

It brightens transparent florals and clean woods while giving fruit accords a fresher outline. Green or musky accents can make the citrus impression feel airy rather than sugary.
The note’s placement and prominence depend on the complete composition.
Understanding this note
Pomelo is a citrus fruit, but a note in a perfume can be built from other citrus materials and aroma molecules. Its name describes the intended impression, not a complete ingredient declaration.
