About

Aloe vera comes from the fleshy leaves of Aloe barbadensis, but the natural extract is nearly odourless. Perfumers rebuild the scent from green, watery and soft floral molecules. It smells clean, watery and green, with faint herbal and sweet touches like fresh-cut leaves. It stays light and is used in the top or heart for a dewy freshness.

Scent Profile

Aloe vera in perfumery presents a clean, watery-green aroma with subtle herbal and slightly sweet undertones. Its scent is delicate, evoking fresh-cut leaves and a gentle, cooling sensation. The note remains light and transparent, rarely dominating a composition.

What this is made of

Aloe extract

A natural extract

CAS 8001-97-6

We hold the extract, but aloe is very faint and its perfumery presence is largely an idea rather than a dosed material - held below 0.7 for that reason.

How the layers join

Origin

Aloe vera is sourced from the fleshy leaves of the Aloe barbadensis plant, primarily grown in arid and subtropical regions. In fragrance, its scent is typically recreated using accords of green, watery, and soft floral molecules, as the natural extract is nearly odorless.

Usage in Perfumery

Perfumers use aloe vera accords mainly in the top or heart of compositions to impart a fresh, dewy quality. It pairs well with other green, aquatic, and light floral notes, and is often found in modern, clean, or spa-inspired fragrances.
