What is ScentArt?

Origin

Passionfruit aroma in perfumery is recreated using aroma chemicals such as ethyl butyrate, gamma-undecalactone, and other esters. These compounds are blended to mimic the distinctive scent profile of the fresh fruit.

Usage in Perfumery

Perfumers use passionfruit primarily as a top or heart note to impart a lively, tropical character to compositions. It pairs well with other fruity notes, florals like jasmine or ylang-ylang, and green or musky accords to enhance its complexity.
