Lilac
Lilac is a delicate and romantic floral note known for its light, fresh, and subtly sweet aroma with hints of green and powdery undertones. Its scent evokes the feeling of springtime and adds a soft, feminine quality to perfumes. Often used as a heart note, lilac lends an airy and graceful touch to fragrance compositions, pairing beautifully with other florals, citrus, and green notes to create a balanced and nostalgic blend that feels timeless and refreshing.
History & Production: Native to Europe and Asia, lilac (Syringa vulgaris) has been cherished for centuries for its beauty and enchanting fragrance. The flowers themselves do not produce essential oil, so their scent is typically recreated synthetically in perfumery or by blending with other natural floral notes to capture its essence. Lilac has historically symbolized purity and the joy of spring, and its delicate, aromatic profile continues to inspire perfumers to create fragrances that celebrate its soft, romantic character.
