Fruitfully Fragrant - Exploring the Perfume Power of Fruits

Down through time, fruity fragrances have never waned in popularity.

Their notes render a fresh, joyful sweetness that stands alone when compared to others. Many types of fruit are used in perfumery.

Whether red, yellow. orange or green, exotic fruits are fresh, ripe and scintillating and those most commonly found in fragrance include but are not limited to: velvety, aromatic peach, tangy, tart black currant, lush, tropical mango and sweet, succulent passion fruit.

Their fragrances are deep and enduring and often blended with other olfactory families. 

The Different Types of Fruity Perfumes

While there are a multitude of fruits to choose from when it comes to formulating a unique fragrance, fruity perfumes fall loosely into three distinct categories.

These include: energizing citrus, sugary berries and tropical variations. Lemons, limes, bergamot, oranges and grapefruits make perfect daytime scents; berries add a lush, sweet and warm character and exotic fruits carry us far away to sunny realms with just one whiff.

A Short History Of Fruity Fragrances

Ancient writings extolling the essence of fruits include the Bible where it was recorded that Eve was banished from the Garden of Eden because she dared to eat a sacred apple.

The first notes to appear in fruity formulations were from the citrus family.

They were the ingredients for the world’s first eau-de cologne of the 18th century and included: complex, bitter and light bergamot and fresh, clean lemon or lush orange.

By the turn of the 20th century, advances in industrial science and chemistry created a new avenue for olfactory creations using synthetic raw materials.

In 1919, Jacque Guerlain’s Mitsouko, featured for the first time a milky, woody peach note as a star ingredient.

This creation was made possible due to the many advances made in synthetic chemistry that were occurring at the time.

The Appeal of Fruity Fragrances

In the past, fruity notes were mostly integrated into feminine fragrances, particularly those comprised of fresh lemon, sharp lime, invigorating grapefruit, lush orange and honeyed, sweet eucalyptus.

Today, however, the masculine fragrances we've developed contain more and more fruity facets, including: crispy apple, lush pineapple, fresh, dewy melon and green, fresh watermelon.

The increasing popularity of these fragrances is possibly due to their ability to transport the user mentally to other times from the distant past.

Childhood memories swirl of warm delectable aromas of sweet pies and pastries wafting from a family oven and deeply etched kitchen moments of early nourishment and love.

The Use Of Fruity Facets In Perfumery

Fruity notes, as well as other natural raw materials, have substantially increased the range of natural options available to contemporary perfume specialists to a total of approximately 4,000 available materials, from which about 1,000 (natural and synthetic substances) are selected.

Particularly favored, albeit costly, are natural fruity elements such as: slightly sweet and heavy pear; green, banana-nuanced apple ester and rosy, tangy raspberry.

Primarily found in the heart notes of a fragrance, they also sometimes appear in the top notes where their volatility and lightness are immediately felt. 

Older molecules are constantly evolving in character and newer ones are always on the horizon.

Dewy melon, dense pear, crunchy apple apple and mild, rosy and juicy lychee scents are found in a myriad of diverse products that include: strawberry shampoo and soft eau de toilette variations focused on the scent preferences of teenage girls.
