Sweet Pea

Sweet pea is a delicate and floral fragrance note with a light, sweet scent profile that carries subtle fruity and slightly powdery undertones. Its aroma is soft, romantic, and fresh, adding a gentle and uplifting quality to perfumes. Sweet pea imparts a charming, floral character and is often used as a middle note to create a graceful and lighthearted composition. It pairs beautifully with other floral, fruity, and green notes, contributing to fragrances that are feminine, airy, and full of elegance.

History & Production: Sweet pea (Lathyrus odoratus) is native to the Mediterranean region and has been cherished in gardens for centuries for its beautiful blooms and pleasant aroma. In perfumery, the scent of sweet pea is typically recreated using synthetic accords or blended with other floral notes, as it is challenging to extract directly from the flower. Sweet pea notes are valued for their ability to add a soft, floral sweetness that enhances the freshness and charm of a fragrance, evoking a sense of grace and romantic beauty.
