Cinnamon (Ceylon)
Cinnamon from Ceylon is a warm and spicy fragrance note with a sweet, slightly woody scent profile that carries subtle hints of clove and citrus undertones. Its aroma is rich, comforting, and inviting, adding a cozy and exotic quality to perfumes. Ceylon cinnamon imparts a smooth, spicy character and is often used as a middle or base note to create warmth and depth in fragrance compositions. It pairs beautifully with vanilla, amber, and floral notes, contributing to fragrances that are warm, luxurious, and full of character.
History & Production: Ceylon cinnamon, also known as “true cinnamon,” comes from the inner bark of the Cinnamomum verum tree, primarily grown in Sri Lanka (formerly Ceylon). The bark is harvested, dried, and rolled into quills, then distilled to capture its fragrant essential oil. In perfumery, Ceylon cinnamon is prized for its sweet, smooth aroma that adds a rich, spicy depth to fragrances, evoking a sense of warmth, tradition, and luxury.
