Limoncello

Honey’s sweet, golden-amber warmth and spicy aroma have been included in perfumery for thousands of years. Its enticing and smooth texture is both comforting and deeply sensual, making it an ideal note for cozy floral fragrances as well as velvety, dessert scents. Jasmine, rose, freesia, tuberose, caramel, chocolate, leather (including suede), and sweet citrus notes are excellent companions for honey’s casual decadence.

A deep, rich, dense and sickly-sweet scent with warm, buttery tones. Caramel is often used as a base note to define fragrances with a sensual heat that lingers. Most often used in women’s perfumes, caramel adds a sweetness to delicate floral compositions and enriches gourmand fragrances. Caramel adds a luxurious, sweet, velvety tone to any fragrance. It pairs well with wood and fruit notes, and can take spicy scents in a fun, dessert-style direction. Caramel is also a note you can wear day or night. It adds an unexpected, flirtatious feel to a floral perfume, or add a dash of sensual interest to an aromatic, citrusy cologne. Caramel also lends a smooth edge to resinous fragrances, and blends perfectly with other foodie notes like coffee, chocolate, vanilla, etc.

Alluring, sensual, enticing… Musk is well-known for its aphrodisiac powers. Perfumers play with a myriad of synthetic musks to fix, blend and mold ingredients in a number of intoxicating accords. These notes are clean and transparent—lending a velvety, skinny effect. Musk notes in perfume used to be processed from the actual musk glands of animals to impart a gamey, warm, and sensual texture. But this practice is illegal in modern times, and nowadays musk notes in fragrance are entirely synthetic. Musk’s tangy aroma can range from sheer, metallic and bright to very animalic and even as intimate as the scent of warm, damp, human skin. Musk adds a sultry, sensual feel to demure feminine scents, as well as making masculine notes like tobacco and leather vividly expressive in cologne. For perfume fans who enjoy the alluring scent of warm, clean, skin - musk is a must-have note in fragrance.
