Origin

Mulberry note in perfumery is typically recreated using natural isolates and synthetic aroma compounds, as the fruit itself yields little extractable oil. The mulberry tree (genus Morus) is native to Asia and parts of Europe, but the scent is usually constructed in the lab for consistency and intensity.

Usage in Perfumery

Perfumers use mulberry primarily as a heart or top note to impart a lush, naturalistic fruitiness to compositions. It blends well with other red fruits, florals, and woody notes, and is often used to add depth to gourmand or fruity-floral fragrances. Its nuanced character helps bridge fresh and sweet accords.
