About The Formula
Introduction
This accord for Linden Tree (or basswood) is a personal interpretation by perfumer Camille Galin.
The Inspiration
The basswood, a majestic tree with a regressive smell, evokes a sense of calm and suspended time. Its imposing leaves and fragrance create a moment of tranquility.
The Accord
Galin envisioned a waxy, honeyed, and powdery basswood accord. She combined the linden blossom with mimosa, creating an intense heat and sweetness.
Versatility
The Linden Tree accord is incredibly versatile. It can be paired with citrus notes for a sparkling cologne, or with ylang-ylang for a solar and narcotic trail. It also blends beautifully with fruity undertones, as exemplified by Galin's combination with melon.
Possible Uses
This accord can be used in a wide range of fragrance creations, from fresh and sparkling colognes to warm and narcotic perfumes. Its unique and evocative nature makes it ideal for capturing a sense of tranquility, warmth, or even a touch of whimsy.
