As today is Valentine’s Day we thought we would take a look at the addictive gourmand fragrance trend that we just can’t get enough of! Online searches in the US for gourmand fragrances were up 46% last year and are expect the grow by 20% this year, according to Spate.    Comfortingly familiar, vanilla has to be one of the biggest trends in fragrance right now. Love it or hate it, vanilla has been given a grown-up makeover for a more sophisticated appeal. Think Parfum De Marly’s Althair Eau de Parfum with its vanilla bourbon note contrasted with luminous orange blossom, spices and musk.   If you prefer some zing to cut through the sweetness we’ve also seen the trend for citrus gourmand scents with everything from meringue notes in Divine from Jean Paul Gaultier to a lemon cupcake accord in Akro’s Bake scent.    Bringing a warm richness to gourmand creations we are also seeing the intriguing combination of tobacco with sweet notes of honey and vanilla for a sophisticated appeal. Guerlain’s Tobacco Honey is a perfect example of this trend.   If you’re feeling inspired by the gourmand trend why not get in touch below or speak to your Scentmaker in sales… https://lnkd.in/daPNTY9H #valentinesday #gourmand #fragrance #trends #vanilla #fragranceoils

What are aromatic notes? Aromatic notes are the individual scents or ingredients that compose a fragrance. They are the building blocks of a perfume, contributing to its overall scent profile. Aromatic notes can be derived from various sources such as flowers, fruits, spices, woods, resins, and synthetic molecules.  Each aromatic note has unique scent characteristics, ranging from fresh and floral to spicy and woody. Perfumers combine these aromatic notes to create complex and harmonious fragrances that appeal to different preferences and occasions. This Summer explore the fragrance from Police. #Audacitywanted.

🍒 Dive into the World of Cherry Fragrances with ChromEssence's Latest Episode of "What's Inside #5" 🍒   In this episode, we'll delve into the secrets of fragrances infused with cherry notes. These perfumes offer an olfactory experience that is both fruity and sweet, adding a touch of vivacity and sensuality to the composition. Whether black or red, cherries are often utilized in perfumery for their characteristic aroma, which evokes both innocence and temptation.   Our spotlight in this episode falls on the latest cherry sensation to hit the market: Black Opium Over Red. How do we capture the essence of this juicy and unique cherry using only 5 ingredients?   First and foremost, the star note: essence of bitter Almond. Comprising over 70% benzaldehyde, this essence grants us a powerful olfactory note, with a sharp, almost solvent-like ascent, reminiscent of almonds or cherry pits.   Adding to this is beta-ionone, which wraps this linear note with soft floral and slightly woody facets. To achieve this, we'll use 10 times more beta-ionone than essence of bitter almond.   A touch of Cassis Base Firmenich will be incorporated to introduce a juicy and slightly acidic note, blending harmoniously with the floral accents of beta-ionone.   Lastly, a hint of Maltol and Tonka bean absolute will bring the sweet, almost caramelized gourmand note, balancing out the acidity of cassis and significantly enhancing the longevity of the final note. This time, we'll use 5 times less Maltol and tonka bean than bitter almond to achieve this effect.   ✨🍒 The question remains: Will you succumb to temptation? 🍒✨ #ChromEssence #WhatsInside #FragranceExploration #PerfumeJourney #BackOpium
