Lilac

Lilac brings a fresh, dewy, and romantically sweet floral quality to perfumery that is the very essence of spring. These clusters of small purple or white flowers produce an intoxicating scent that is green, slightly powdery, and unmistakably fresh — like walking past a lilac bush in full bloom on a cool spring morning.

Like lily of the valley, lilac's natural scent is difficult to extract, so it is typically recreated in perfumery. Lilac adds a fresh, romantic sweetness that feels innocent and optimistic.

It pairs wonderfully with other spring florals for a garden bouquet, with green notes for a realistic outdoor impression, with musk for a clean modern finish, with vanilla for a soft, warm sweetness, and with fresh citrus for an energizing brightness. You will find lilac in many fresh floral fragrances that celebrate the beauty of spring.
