Floral perfumes

The floral accord is a broad scent family based on the smell of flowers such as rose, jasmine, lily, peony and orange blossom. It ranges from dewy and light to rich, powdery or fruity.

Natural materials such as rose and jasmine absolutes, neroli and ylang-ylang are used alongside molecules like hedione, linalool, phenylethyl alcohol and geraniol to build floral effects. Florals usually form the heart of a fragrance, appearing after the top notes fade. They combine easily with fruity, powdery, musky, woody and citrus accords. Light florals are a classic choice for spring and daytime, while heady white-floral or amber-rich versions tend to suit evenings better.

The Floral accord appears in 45,540 perfumes in the Fisfis catalogue. Below are the most popular scents where it leads.
