Ozonic Notes
Ozonic notes are fresh, airy, and aquatic fragrance components that evoke the crisp, clean scent of a breeze after a rainstorm or the invigorating smell of open water. Their scent profile is light, cool, and slightly marine, adding a modern and refreshing quality to perfumes. Ozonic notes are often used as top notes to create an immediate sense of brightness and space. They pair well with citrus, floral, and green notes, contributing to fragrances that feel fresh, dynamic, and contemporary.
History & Production: Ozonic notes were introduced in the 20th century with the development of synthetic aroma molecules designed to replicate the scent of fresh air and water. These notes became popular in the 1990s, featured prominently in fragrances aiming for a clean, modern aesthetic. The most notable synthetic compound used for ozonic notes is Calone, which imparts a distinctive marine and airy quality. Ozonic notes continue to be favored for their ability to create a sense of lightness and expansiveness, adding a breezy, refreshing touch to both traditional and modern perfumes.
