Strawberry
Strawberries yield no perfume extract; the jammy smell is built from flavor-industry molecules.
- What it is
- A fruit whose smell can’t be extracted, so perfumers rebuild it from other materials.
- How perfumers build it
- Worth knowing
- Aldehyde C-16, the 'strawberry aldehyde', is neither an aldehyde nor built on 16 carbons.
