Terpenic perfumes

Terpenic perfumes

The terpenic accord is a scent family that captures the sharp, resinous, cool and slightly turpentine-like smell of terpenes, the molecules found in pine resin, citrus peel, juniper and many herbs. It adds a raw, natural energy to a fragrance.

Molecules such as pinene, limonene, myrcene, terpinolene and camphene form the core, and pine, fir, juniper, elemi resin and citrus oils are naturally rich in them. Terpenic notes usually show in the top and evaporate fairly quickly. They pair often with conifer, citrus, aromatic, camphor and woody accords. Terpenic fragrances suit daytime wear, the outdoors and the spring and autumn months.

The Terpenic accord appears in 335 perfumes in the Fisfis catalogue. Below are the most popular scents where it leads.
