Unknown species (please help)

Greetings!
Although I am not a complete beginner I can't seem to determine what species my bonsai belongs to. I bought it in spring and the labels were mixed-up. I hope you can see it from the pictures, the leaves are bright green and it has little thorns at the base of thinner branches and leaves. It also has a lemony smell, but only if you disturb the leaves. I would appreciate it, if someone could help me determine the species. Thank you! Dule
