About cream accord
Cream accord represents a collection of fragrance notes designed to evoke the luxurious, smooth, and rich texture of cream. Unlike notes derived directly from natural sources, a cream accord is often a blend of synthetic and natural ingredients crafted to mimic the olfactory sensation of cream. This note is celebrated for its ability to add a velvety depth and comforting warmth to a fragrance, making it a favorite in gourmand and oriental compositions. Its subtle sweetness and soft texture make it an excellent base note, providing a lingering foundation that supports and enhances the layers above.
Synthetic Alternatives
Cream accord is primarily achieved through synthetic means, using a blend of aroma chemicals designed to replicate the smooth, rich, and slightly sweet scent of cream. Ingredients may include lactones for their creamy, peachy notes, along with vanillin and other sweet, comforting compounds.
Perfumer's Tips
Use sparingly to introduce a smooth, rich base that complements and softens sharper top and middle notes. Ideal for rounding off gourmand, oriental, and woody scents with a touch of creamy sweetness.
