Pompia is a hybrid variety of Citrus, closely related to Buddha's Hand and Citron.
Pompia like Citron has an excessively thickened rind and pith with a very small amount of quite dry pulp that yields a minimal amount of juice. It's close relative - Buddha's Hand has no pulp and is made up entirely of a thickened rind and pith.
The aroma of Pompia Essential Oil is exquisite - it has the fresh & zesty aroma of Lemon but without the bitterness associated with Lemon Essential Oil. It is fragrant and sweet-like (lemon pip sweets spring to mind) and has mild honey and spicy undertones.
This irresistible combination makes burning a few drops a delight , and it can be used in perfumery to create unique fragrances or as an uplifting and refreshing element to a massage blend.
