ABOUT

Amaryllis is a luminous, dewy floral note evoking crisp green stems and waxy petals, with a cool airy radiance; it bridges lily-of-the-valley and narcissus nuances while remaining less indolic, touched by gentle peppery, honeyed, and faint watery-fruity facets. Usually crafted as an accord rather than a natural extract, it serves as a heart note to add clarity and lift in modern florals and green-watery bouquets, pairing seamlessly with muguet, peony, cyclamen, airy aldehydes, sheer musks, and light woods.
