Every diamond is valued by its carat weight, its colour, its clarity and its cut.

No one cut is 'better' or 'more valuable' than any other cut, because the cut is decided upon to show off the other characteristics of the stone, such as its colour or its clarity.

Is citrine diamond a real diamond?

'Citrine' is the brand (?) name for yellow; diamond is the mineral. Your local jeweler can verify that this gem is a diamond. If you are buying a citrine diamond, ask for documentation as to its authenticity, including the source of its colour: natural or enhanced. (Yellow diamonds, regardless of the name of the yellow colour, that are enhanced, are less valuable than naturally coloured diamonds.) As a note, citrine is also the name for the yellow variety of quartz, which is far less valuable than diamond.

Is a real diamond more or less valuable than a synthetic diamond?

A real diamond is generally more valuable than a synthetic diamond due to its rarity and natural creation process. Real diamonds are formed deep within the Earth's mantle over millions of years, while synthetic diamonds are created in a controlled laboratory setting. These differences in origin and scarcity contribute to the higher value of natural diamonds.

What can be inferred from the phrase in your question is a description of a gem-stone quality diamond (which is always less valuable than a natural diamond).
