Wheat bran

Wheat bran, reconstituted cereal and bakery sweetness

Wheat bran is the outer husk of the wheat grain, separated during milling to produce white flour. This raw material, rich in fiber and cereal aromas, is not subject to conventional perfume extraction, and the note that bears its name is entirely an olfactory reconstruction imagined by the perfumer. It draws on the sensory evocation of grain and bakery.

The desired olfactory profile combines a dry, floury cereal character with a light milky and honeyed sweetness, recalling the smell of warm bread and freshly milled grain. Perfumers build this note from materials with a cereal character, lightly sweet and natural, to recreate the warmth and simplicity of this food raw material.

In composition, the wheat bran note fits into gourmand accords, bakery-style compositions and soft musks, where it brings a floury sweetness and a natural warmth. It pairs naturally with notes of vanilla, honey, soft musks or milky notes, contributing to compositions evocative of bakery and domestic comfort.

Its cereal dryness allows it to combine with light woody notes or hay accords, creating compositions with a natural, warm aesthetic. Reconstituted wheat bran fits into a contemporary perfumed aesthetic that values food references and accords with a cereal, soft and comforting character.
