Floral Notes

Angelica

Angelica has a complex, green, herbal, and slightly earthy aroma with fresh, spicy, and slightly sweet undertones. It offers a crisp, clean scent with nuanced layers of root-like earthiness and a delicate herbaceous character.
Origin and Extraction
Angelica is derived from the Angelica archangelica plant, native to Northern Europe, particularly Scandinavia and parts of Russia. The essential oil is typically extracted through steam distillation of the plant's roots, seeds, or stems, with the root providing the most concentrated aromatic profile.
History and Culture
Angelica has a rich history in traditional medicine and folklore, particularly in European cultures. It was believed to have protective properties against plague and evil spirits, earning it the nickname 'herb of the angels'. In culinary traditions, it's used in liqueurs, candies, and as a flavoring agent, demonstrating its versatility beyond perfumery.
Chemistry and Molecular Structure
Angelica's distinctive aroma comes from its complex composition of monoterpenes and sesquiterpenes, including compounds like β-phellandrene, α-pinene, and ligustilide. These molecular structures contribute to its green, herbal, and slightly spicy aromatic profile.
