Daphne

About

Daphne (Daphne odora) is a luminous, creamy-sweet floral note that blends jasmine-and-gardenia richness with a lemony sparkle, honeyed nectar, soft peach/apricot nuances, and a gentle green-spicy, subtly indolic undertone, evoking dew-laden early spring. Because the real flower yields virtually no extract, perfumers recreate it via headspace accords combining white-floral molecules, salicylates, lactones, and airy citrus-green facets, using it as a radiant heart note in spring florals, romantic soliflores, and bouquets that bridge sparkling top notes to musky-woody bases.
