Immortelle (Helichrysum)

Immortelle, also known as helichrysum, is a distinctive fragrance note with a warm, rich, and slightly sweet aroma that carries undertones of honey, spice, and maple syrup. Its scent profile is deep and complex, evoking the warmth of sun-drenched landscapes and adding a unique, almost caramel-like quality to perfumes. Immortelle imparts depth and a touch of exotic sweetness, often used as a middle or base note to create a bold and memorable composition. It pairs well with spices, woods, and florals, contributing to fragrances that are warm, opulent, and sophisticated.

History & Production: Immortelle comes from the flowers of the Helichrysum italicum plant, which is native to the Mediterranean region. The essential oil is extracted through steam distillation of the yellow, daisy-like flowers, capturing their rich, aromatic scent. Immortelle has been valued for centuries for its use in traditional medicine and aromatherapy due to its healing and anti-inflammatory properties. In perfumery, it is prized for its distinctive, sweet, and warm aroma that adds a unique and luxurious touch to both classic and modern fragrances, making them stand out with a hint of sunlit sweetness and depth.
