About

Gourmand accord for fruit jelly. Sweet, jammy, with a lactonic body standing in for the wobble.

Scent Profile

Jelly smells sweet and jammy, a bright fruity candy top settling into a syrupy jam heart. A caramelised, toasted sugar sweetness runs through it, close to cotton candy. A creamy, lactonic body gives it the gelled wobble, reading faintly like peach or milky fruit.

What is ScentArt?

Origin

Not extracted from anything. Pectin, the gelling agent, is nearly odourless, so the accord is entirely the fruit syrup the pectin holds. Première Peau names the build: ethyl maltol for candy-sweet warmth, furaneol (CAS 3658-77-3) for strawberry-caramel jam, gamma-undecalactone for the gelled-texture body, methyl 2-methylbutyrate for the ripe-fruit ester top, and vanillin for rounding. The fruit reference chosen decides the lead ester - strawberry takes ethyl methylphenylglycidate, raspberry takes raspberry ketone, cherry takes benzaldehyde with tonka.

Usage in Perfumery

Heart to base of gummy and candy-themed compositions, at medium odour strength. It pairs with red-fruit reconstructions, with vanilla and ethyl maltol, and with confectionery references such as marshmallow and candy floss. It is rare in fine fragrance and more common in fashion-house novelty work. Attested in 25 Fragrantica perfumes and 1 Parfumo entry.
