The citrus fruit Setomi is a hybrid of Yoshiura ponkan (Citrus reticulate Blanco) and Kiyomi (Citrus unshiu Mrcov. × Citrus sinensis Osbeck). The essential oils from the peel of Setomi and its parent cultivars were obtained by a simultaneous distillation extraction technique. Comparing the essential oils of Setomi and its parent cultivars, it was found that the oil in the peel of Setomi consisted of characteristic aroma components from each parent cultivar. The principal component analysis of data, obtained with an electronic nose, indicated that the odor quality of Setomi was different from those of the parent cultivars.
