Here at Plowden & Fallow Rosemary stands out as a timeless and versatile aromatic gem. The scent of Rosemary we have incorporated into a number of our fine fragrance and shaving products, indeed, we would be ever so slightly lost without it! In this short blog we embark on a fragrant journey, exploring the myriad uses of Rosemary in perfumery.
Rosemary: The Plant
Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis) has long been celebrated for its aromatic allure, stemming from the fragrant oils extracted from its leaves. Originating from the Mediterranean region, this perennial herb has found its way into the hearts of perfumers worldwide, offering a unique olfactory profile that seamlessly blends herbal freshness with warm undertones.
ROSEMARy: Top Notes of Elegance
When it comes to creating the top notes of a perfume, Rosemary is a prized choice for our perfumers. Its invigorating and herbaceous aroma adds a touch of freshness that dances atop the fragrance pyramid. The crisp, green facets of Rosemary may help introduce a lively and uplifting element to a perfume, making it an ideal choice for those seeking a burst of energy in their olfactory experience.
ROSEMARY Heart Notes: A Herbal Symphony
As we delve deeper into the heart notes of a fragrance, Rosemary continues to shine. Its herbal richness and slightly woody undertones often contribute depth and complexity to our fragrant compositions where such oils have been utilised. Whether paired with floral, citrus, or spicy notes, Rosemary often may help weave a harmonious olfactory tapestry, helping to enhance the overall composition and creating a captivating herbal symphony.
Rosemary Base Notes: Warm Embrace
In the base notes, Rosemary may often lend a warm and comforting embrace when correctly paired. Its resinous qualities and subtle woody nuances may help provide a solid foundation for a composition. The interplay of Rosemary with other base notes in our opinion often creates a sense of depth and sophistication.
Versatility Unveiled
One of Rosemary's most remarkable features is its versatility. It seamlessly complements a wide range of other aromatics, allowing our perfumers to tailor fragrances for various preferences and occasions. From the fresh and invigorating citrus aromatic scent found in our ‘A Close Shave’ range of shaving products, to deeper, more sensual blends such as our Debonaire Eau de Toilette, Rosemary, we have found, to be an effortlessly adaptable aromatic ingredient.
