Smoke

Smoke is a complex, multi-faceted fragrance note that evokes the scent of burning materials, such as wood, tobacco, or incense. It can range from dry and acrid to rich and resinous, often with hints of charred, toasted, or slightly sweet nuances.

Smoke-based fragrances can evoke a sense of mystery, intrigue, and even a touch of melancholy. They are often associated with a moody, atmospheric vibe and can be suitable for evening wear or colder weather. Smoke notes can add depth and sophistication to a fragrance, making it a versatile and compelling ingredient in perfumery.

Smoke is commonly used as a base note in fragrances, providing depth, warmth, and a sense of mystery. It is often paired with woody, spicy, or resinous notes to create a more complex, atmospheric scent. Smoke-based fragrances are popular in both niche and mainstream perfumery, and can be found in a wide range of scent families, from orientals to fougères.
