by Nest
Citrine by Nest is a light, bright, and airy fragrance centered around lemon blossom, dewy white florals, and a hint of woody drydown. It opens with a crisp, slightly sweet lemon note that feels refreshingly natural—more like fresh-squeezed lemonade than a perfumed citrus. The middle and dry down are dominated by soft, dewy florals like freesia and lotus, which blend into a gentle, creamy floral base with subtle hint of tangerine. The scent is delicate and fleeting, with minimal projection and longevity—most users report it lasting just 2–4 hours on skin, often barely noticeable beyond arm's length. For many, it’s a pleasant, inoffensive, and spring-summer scent—ideal for office wear or casual day use. Some describe it as sweetly green, with a refreshing, almost soapy quality reminiscent of clean linen or dewdrops, while others compare it to J’Adore or Light Blue, though with a softer, more transient presence. It holds its own when layered with complementary scents, such as Chanel Chance Tendre, creating a more vibrant and balanced harmony.
