Origin

Gerbera is a genus of ornamental flowering plants native to South America, Africa, and Asia. In perfumery, its scent is typically recreated through accords using other floral, green, and watery notes, as the flower itself yields little to no extractable essential oil.

Usage in Perfumery

Perfumers use gerbera accords primarily in the top or heart of a composition to impart freshness and a modern floral character. It blends well with other light florals, green notes, and watery accords, and is often used in contemporary feminine and unisex fragrances.
