Lots of fun to make. Smell nice in the hall closet.

I just tried this tonight with a small yuzu. I'm not sure if it'll work well as the yuzu is very thin-skinned, but the smell on my hands was amazing afterwards! It's funny, I've always wanted to try this but forgot all about it until I read your blog entry. Thanks for that!

If the yuzu doesn't work out, maybe a lemon?

It does seem to be working for now. It's quite small, the yuzu. I'm turning it every day or so. I didn't use the cinnamon as I'm not a huge fan of it. I don't know how long the yuzu will last, but hopefully, it will smell nice into the spring.
