Rhododendron

Rhododendron is a fragrant floral note derived from the evergreen shrub of the same name. The flowers have a sweet, slightly spicy aroma with hints of honey and citrus. Rhododendrons are native to Asia and North America, and certain varieties are prized for their vibrant blooms.

Fragrances featuring rhododendron evoke a sense of natural beauty, elegance, and sophistication. The note can create a calming, soothing mood, making it suitable for everyday wear or special occasions. Rhododendron-based scents work well in both warm and cooler weather, making them versatile choices throughout the year.

Rhododendron is commonly used as a heart or middle note in floral and woody-floral fragrances. It pairs well with other floral notes like jasmine, rose, and lilac, as well as citrus and spicy accords. The note is prized for its ability to add depth, complexity, and a touch of sweetness to perfumes.
