Mimosa (India)

Mimosa from India is a delicate and powdery floral note with sweet, green, and slightly honeyed undertones. Its scent profile is soft, warm, and uplifting, evoking the essence of springtime and fresh blossoms. Mimosa adds a gentle, elegant touch to perfumes, often used as a heart note to provide a sense of lightness and natural beauty. It pairs beautifully with other florals, citrus, and woody notes, creating balanced and sophisticated fragrances that exude refinement and charm.

History & Production: Mimosa, particularly from the Acacia dealbata species, has been cherished in India for its fragrant blooms and cultural significance. The flowers are harvested when they are at their most fragrant, and the extraction process typically involves solvent extraction to produce mimosa absolute. This method preserves the soft, powdery scent that is characteristic of mimosa. The use of Indian mimosa in perfumery has gained popularity for its ability to impart a light, airy quality to fragrances, enhancing their floral richness and adding an ethereal touch that evokes the beauty of nature.
