Cold expression
A mechanical extraction method reserved for citrus, in which the zest is cold-pressed to release its essential oil without heat. Cold expression preserves the bright freshness of hesperidic materials, bergamot, lemon, orange, which distillation would alter. It provides the luminous top notes sought for the olfactory welcome of palace lobbies, fresh and immediate.
