Description
Beyond its culinary uses and popularity in herbal teas, thyme is highly valued in perfumery. This resilient sun-loving plant thrives in arid soils like those of the Mediterranean scrubland, imparting a tonic quality. Thyme essential oil is extracted through hydrodistillation of its leaves, releasing a warm and lively aroma. It adds a sun-kissed, aromatic note to perfumes, blending well with woody, chypre, and fougère compositions.
Today, thyme is a key ingredient in numerous fragrances, including the iconic **Ange ou Démon by Givenchy** and **Chypre Rouge by Serge Lutens**. The **Burberry** house particularly favors thyme's scent, featuring it in many of their creations like **Burberry Men** and **Burberry Summer**. 🌞✨
