Lilac

Floral Notes

Lilac is a delicate, soft, and ethereal floral scent characterized by a light, sweet, and slightly green aroma. It has a fresh, clean, and romantic quality with nuanced notes of powdery sweetness and subtle green undertones. The fragrance is typically light to medium in intensity and evokes a sense of spring and youthful innocence.

Lilac is primarily derived from the flowers of the Syringa vulgaris plant, native to the Balkan Peninsula. In modern perfumery, most lilac fragrances are synthetic recreations, as natural extraction is challenging and yields very low quantities of essential oil. Headspace technology and molecular reconstruction are commonly used to capture the delicate lilac scent.
