Aside from the obvious difference that they are different fruits; it's all about the flavour. If you want an orange flavour in your muffins use orange zest. Want lemon flavour? Use lemon zest.

Zest is simply the peel of a citris fruit that has been finely grated. The peeling of these fruits has a more potent flavor than the fruit itself.
