ABOUT

Mignonette (Reseda) smells of warm, honeyed floral sweetness layered with fresh green, hay‑like and slightly powdery facets—intimate and old‑fashioned, evoking cottage gardens, cut hay and summer evenings. In perfumery it is used as a middle‑note accent to lend naturalistic green‑honey depth to bouquets, chypres and aldehydic florals, brightening roses, jasmines and leafy accords or recreated synthetically to impart its distinctive warm‑green nuance.
