Rain notes

Rain notes, reconstituted mineral and ozonic freshness

The smell of air after rain is a natural and universal olfactory phenomenon, associated with natural phenomena that occur in the soil and in the atmosphere during precipitation. In perfumery, this sensation cannot be captured through direct extraction, so rain notes are entirely an accord recomposed by the perfumer, an olfactory interpretation of an atmospheric phenomenon.

The olfactory profile sought is built around an aquatic and mineral impression, enriched with ozonic facets that evoke purified air after the shower. A wet earth note in the base completes the evocation, recalling the smell of wet soil and vegetation after rain. Perfumers construct this accord from raw materials with an aquatic, mineral and slightly earthy character.

In composition, rain notes are integrated into aquatic, green and mineral accords, where they bring a natural freshness and a particular atmospheric evocation. They naturally interact with notes of moss, wet wood, green leaves or minerals, contributing to compositions evocative of landscapes after a rain shower.

Their ozonic and mineral character makes them precious ingredients for bringing transparency and lightness to compositions that seek to evoke nature and pure air. Reconstituted rain notes fit into a contemporary perfumery aesthetic that values atmospheric evocations and accords with a natural and airy character.
