Yuzu (Citrus junos Sieb. ex Tanaka) is a very specific citrus variety mostly produced in Japan and South Korea. In recent years, it received considerable interest from the flavour and fragrance industry, and many studies devoted to the characterization of its volatile constituents have been published, often leading to somewhat contradictory results. This comprehensive review aims at giving a general view of the volatile components and the putative key odorants of Yuzu peel oil.
