About

A baked-dessert accord led by vanilla, with coconut, butter and pastry crust under it.

Scent Profile

Coconut pie is led by vanilla, sweet and warm as the base of the whole accord. A creamy butter note sits just behind it, the pie filling rather than any fruit. Coconut plays a supporting tropical role here, one ingredient among several rather than the star. A hint of toasted almond from the crust and a light dusting of sugar close it out.

What is ScentArt?

Origin

There is no coconut pie extract. The note is a compound gourmand accord. Both retail sources found describe the same build: 'a rich, vanilla base with notes of coconut, creamy butter, and a hint of fresh-baked crust'. In practice that means vanillin and ethyl maltol for the vanilla base, gamma-nonalactone and gamma-octalactone for the coconut, a buttery lactone or diacetyl-type material for the cream, and a toasted-pastry accord for the crust. The term is attested in 6 Fragrantica perfumes and none on Parfumo.

Usage in Perfumery

Perfumers use it as a base and heart gourmand, to give a dessert composition a specific pastry identity rather than a plain coconut one. It sits with vanilla, tonka, milk, butter and toasted nut notes. The vanilla carries the weight, so the accord holds long after the crust facet has gone.
