About

Pomarose has a distinctive scent that combines juicy, crisp apple and fruity nuances with a rich, dewy rose undertone. It brings a fresh, modern fruitiness to fragrances, often described as reminiscent of lychee or pear as well. Its unique profile makes it popular in contemporary perfumery for adding both floral and fruity vibrancy.

How the layers join

Origin

Pomarose is produced through chemical synthesis and does not occur in nature. It was developed by Firmenich and is based on a patented molecule, ethyl 2,2-dimethyl-3-(3-methylbutyl)cyclopropanecarboxylate. Its creation allows perfumers to access a unique fruit-rose effect not easily extracted from natural sources.

Usage in Perfumery

Perfumers use Pomarose primarily in the heart and top notes to impart a fresh, juicy fruitiness with a floral twist. It blends well with rose, peony, lychee, pear, and other fruity or floral notes, and is often featured in modern floral, fruity, and gourmand compositions. Its versatility makes it valuable for adding vibrancy and complexity to both feminine and unisex fragrances.
