citrus accord
I am a perfumer. A group of "aroma notes" i.e. different chemicals, essential oils or absolutes form an ACCORD in perfumery, not a CORD or CHORD. CORD in English always means a string, usually a tough one, perhaps of leather or animal sinew. CHORD is used in music and is a harmonious group of note played together.
In perfumery, the term ACCORD is used to describe a group of aromas which smell a certain and different way from any of its constituent parts.
