About

Strawberry meringue is a dessert note: whipped sugar and egg white with red berry folded through it. The sugar side leads and the fruit sits on top as a garnish. It is drier and airier than strawberry cream, and it has none of the cooked, syrupy weight of strawberry jam.

Scent Profile

Strawberry Meringue smells of sweet, airy sugar first, close to whipped meringue. A red berry fruitiness sits on top of the sugar, like a garnish rather than the main body. A soft, powdery cloud-like texture runs through it, with a creamy touch underneath. It stays drier and airier than a strawberry cream note.

What is ScentArt?

Origin

A confectionery reference, not a material. No supplier sells a discrete 'strawberry meringue' base. The name comes from perfume marketing copy of 2007-2009, and Estee Lauder's Pleasures Delight (2007) is the clearest use: its own note list gives 'whipped strawberry meringue' as one top-note item beside pomegranate and caramel. A perfumer builds it from strawberry esters over the same sugar-and-egg-white accord that carries the published meringue note. Trade glossaries describe that accord as sweet, airy and creamy with no egg or butter (Silloria; CA Perfume).

Usage in Perfumery

Attested in 2 Parfumo-listed fragrances and absent from Fragrantica's note index. Parfumo counts 3 perfumes in total and places it in the top note, all between 2007 and 2009. It is a period gourmand flourish rather than a working note, and nothing recorded uses it after 2009.
