About caviar
Caviar as a fragrance note is intriguing and somewhat unconventional. It brings a marine, salty dimension to perfumery, offering a touch of luxury and exclusivity reminiscent of the delicacy it's named after. Its characteristics are deeply tied to its aquatic origins, providing a fresh and slightly briny aroma that can add an unexpected twist to a fragrance's heart. While not derived directly from fish eggs, the caviar note in perfumery is crafted to evoke the same opulence and refined taste, often through synthetic means or creative blending of marine and salty notes.
Synthetic Alternatives
The caviar note in perfumery is primarily achieved through synthetic ingredients designed to mimic the unique, salty freshness of real caviar, as there are no direct natural extracts from caviar used in fragrances.
Perfumer's Tips
Use sparingly to add a unique marine freshness to a fragrance, often in the heart notes to enrich and give complexity. It pairs well with fresh, aquatic notes as well as certain floral and woody notes to ground the freshness.
