Honey perfumes
The honey accord is built on the dense, sweet, floral and slightly animalic smell of honey, adding a golden, warm depth to a fragrance. Depending on the dose, it can give a gentle sweetness or a pronounced, slightly sharp character.
Beeswax absolute together with phenylacetic acid and its esters are the main sources of the effect, and at higher doses these molecules can show a slightly animalic side. Honey usually sits in the heart and base. It pairs often with tobacco, yellow florals, rose, vanilla, amber and woods. With its warm, rich character, honey suits autumn and winter and evening wear.
The Honey accord appears in 3,447 perfumes in the Fisfis catalogue. Below are the most popular scents where it leads.
