Mistletoe
Note Profile
Scent Profile
Mistletoe has a green, herbal scent profile with subtle woody and slightly bitter undertones. Its aroma is fresh, leafy, and somewhat resinous, evoking the scent of crushed stems and foliage. Over time, it can reveal faintly earthy and balsamic nuances.
Origin
Mistletoe is a semi-parasitic plant found on various trees in Europe and North America. In perfumery, the scent is typically recreated using accords of green, woody, and herbal materials, as direct extraction is rare due to the plant's toxicity.
Usage in Perfumery
Perfumers use mistletoe accords mainly in the heart or top notes to impart a naturalistic, verdant character. It blends well with other green notes, woods, and florals, and is often used to evoke forest or winter landscapes in compositions.
