About

Tiare Flower exudes a rich, creamy, and exotic floral scent with nuances reminiscent of coconut, jasmine, and vanilla. It is lush, sweet, and slightly green, evoking the warmth and sensuality of tropical islands. This note is often used to create a luxurious and sun-drenched aura in fragrances.

Scent Profile

Tiare Flower is a tropical white floral, warm, creamy and coconut-like, with some jasmine headiness and a vanilla-like sweetness that stops short of gourmand. A green-waxy freshness opens it, echoed by a floral greenness further in. The creamy body is buttery rather than fatty, lush and slightly green, evoking sun-drenched islands.

How the layers join

Origin

Tiare flowers are native to French Polynesia, where they are traditionally used in Monoi oil. In perfumery, the scent is typically recreated using headspace technology, natural isolates, or accords blending gardenia, ylang-ylang, and coconut notes, as true extraction yields little aromatic material.

Usage in Perfumery

Perfumers use tiare flower primarily in the heart of compositions to impart a creamy, tropical floralcy. It blends well with other white florals, coconut, vanilla, and solar notes, and is often featured in beach-inspired, exotic, or summer-themed fragrances. Its presence adds richness and a sun-drenched aura to both feminine and unisex scents.
