GOURMAND NOTE
A gourmand note is a fragrance with a sweet and almost edible scent. Notes like vanilla, cinnamon, caramel, coffee, and praline are typical gourmand notes, as they provide a delicious, almost edible scent. A gourmand fragrance is a perfume consisting primarily of synthetic edible (gourmand) notes, such as honey, chocolate, vanilla or candy. These top and middle notes may be blended with non-edible base notes. They have been described as olfactory desserts.

Application Suitability
Today, gourmand compounds utilize synthetic scents. Historically, and with some modern all-natural perfume manufacturers, scents are derived from the essential oils of plants, animals, and even seaweed. Synthetic creations, conversely, offer scents which do not exist in the natural world. Thus, the application suitability turns to very limited applications.

GOURMAND ODOR SCIENCE OF PERFORMANCE
A synthetic molecule reproducing the sweet scent of vanilla, or coumarin, a tonka bean extract with an almond smell, it is another molecule that has revolutionized gourmand notes. This component evokes the scents of ripe fruit or caramel. Before the advent of gourmand perfume, this molecule was only used in the food sector. Combined with natural ingredients, it brings a delicious sweet touch with caramel and praline accents.
This is the case of furaneol, which is a natural organic component found in strawberries and many other fruits. This ingredient has roasted sugar tones and is used to reproduce the smell of fresh pineapple. KONIKA Perfumers integrate it into their formulas to give a “candy” look or add a hint of cooked fruit.
