Sugar

Sugar is a sweet, crystalline carbohydrate extracted from sugarcane or sugar beets. It is a versatile ingredient used extensively in perfumery to create warm, gourmand, and comforting scents. The sweet, caramelized aroma of sugar is often blended with other notes to add depth and richness to fragrances.

Fragrances featuring sugar notes tend to evoke a sense of comfort, indulgence, and nostalgia. They can create a cozy, comforting atmosphere and are often associated with baked goods, desserts, and childhood memories. Sugar-based scents are well-suited for casual, everyday wear and can be enjoyed year-round, though they may be particularly appealing in colder weather.

Sugar is commonly used as a base note in fragrances, providing a sweet, warm, and comforting foundation. It is often paired with other gourmand notes like vanilla, caramel, or honey to create rich, indulgent scents. Sugar can also be found in the top or heart notes of some fragrances, adding a touch of sweetness to the overall composition. It is a versatile ingredient that is frequently used in perfumes across various olfactory families, from oriental to floral to woody scents.
