Ivy

Ivy is a fresh, green, and slightly woody fragrance note with subtle earthy and leafy undertones. Its scent profile is crisp and invigorating, evoking the essence of climbing ivy in shaded gardens and dense forests. Ivy adds a natural, verdant quality to perfumes, often used as a top or middle note to impart a sense of freshness and a touch of the outdoors. It pairs well with other green, floral, and citrus notes, contributing to compositions that are vibrant, refreshing, and sophisticated.

History & Production: Ivy, while not commonly distilled for essential oil, is often recreated through synthetic accords or by blending natural extracts to capture its leafy, green essence. The use of ivy in perfumery is inspired by the plant’s symbolic association with nature, resilience, and growth. Ivy notes have gained popularity in modern perfumery for their ability to add a crisp, green touch that enhances the freshness and liveliness of a fragrance. This note is valued for bringing a natural and rejuvenating character to both classic and contemporary scent compositions.
