This study investigated the changes in volatile organic compounds (VOCs) of navel orange during fruit maturation. The volatiles in navel orange from July (young fruit period) to November (commercial maturation period) were separated by headspace solid-phase microextraction (HS-SPME) and analyzed using gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS). Fifty-seven VOCs were identified and classified into five groups. Through principal component analysis, the samples of different months were discriminated, and one-way analysis of variance showed that 55 volatiles significantly differed during growth. Among the VOCs, the relative concentration of monoterpenes increased with maturity, and D-limonene was the component with the highest content. Similar behavior was exhibited for aldehydes, reaching the maximum content in November. On the contrary, esters decreased its concentration from July to November. The concentration of sesquiterpenes gradually increased, reaching the maximum level between August and November. Moreover, alcohols reached theirs largest content in September, β-Linalool had the highest content among the alcohols. These results provided important theoretical support for the development of navel orange components and comprehensively elucidate the flavor characteristics during the ripening of navel orange.
