Note Profile
About
Sweet-tart red berry, between raspberry and cranberry, with a faint earthy edge
Scent Profile
Yumberry smells lively and tart, close to a blend of raspberry and cranberry, juicy and full-bodied. A sweet, tangy edge runs alongside the tartness rather than a jammy sweetness. A faint green undertone and a hint of earthiness show through underneath.

Origin
The fruit of Myrica rubra, the Chinese bayberry, also called yangmei, red bayberry, waxberry and Chinese strawberry. Yumberry is a trade name for the juice and is a registered mark in the EU. The fruit is dark crimson, knobbly and fragile, and it stains. There is no traded natural extract. Premiere Peau lists no CAS number and no extraction method for it, so the perfumery note is built as an accord.
Usage in Perfumery
Premiere Peau places it as a top note that gives a burst of freshness, and says it works with citrus, florals and spices. Against other fruit it adds juiciness, and its tartness balances sweeter accords. Attested in three Fragrantica perfumes and none on Parfumo.
