Origin

Star apple, also known as Chrysophyllum cainito, is native to the Caribbean and Central America. The aromatic essence is typically obtained through solvent extraction or headspace technology from the fruit's pulp, as direct distillation is uncommon due to the delicate nature of its aroma.

Usage in Perfumery

Perfumers use star apple as a heart or accent note to impart a lush, exotic fruitiness to compositions. It blends well with other tropical fruits, lactonic notes, and soft florals, and is often used to evoke a creamy, gourmand effect in modern fruity or floral-fruity fragrances.
