Olive Flowers

Olive flowers are a subtle and elegant fragrance note with a delicate floral aroma that carries soft, sweet, and slightly green undertones. Their scent profile is light, fresh, and sophisticated, adding a gentle and refined quality to perfumes. Olive flowers impart a touch of floral warmth and are often used as a middle note to create an understated and harmonious composition. They pair well with citrus, woody, and other floral notes, contributing to fragrances that are balanced, serene, and timeless.

History & Production: Olive flowers come from the olive tree (Olea europaea), which is native to the Mediterranean region and revered for its fruit and oil. While the blossoms themselves are not commonly distilled for essential oil, their delicate aroma has inspired perfumers to recreate their scent using synthetic accords and blends of floral and green notes. Olive flowers are valued in perfumery for their ability to add a light, natural touch that evokes the essence of Mediterranean landscapes and sunlit gardens. This unique note enhances the complexity and sophistication of both traditional and modern fragrances.
