Apricot

39 perfumes

Apricot is a luscious, lactonic fruit note derived from synthetic esters like gamma-undecalactone. It offers a velvety, honeyed sweetness with a subtle, sun-drenched tartness. Typically appearing in the heart of a fragrance, it adds a succulent, fleshy depth to floral bouquets. In the Gulf market, apricot is a sophisticated bridge, harmonizing beautifully with the leathery warmth of aged oud or the spicy, golden threads of saffron, lending a modern, gourmand elegance to traditional, opulent oriental compositions.
