Drvo trešnje

Woody, faintly cherry-like, with a warm almond-bitter quality. Cherry tree wood smells like a quieter version of the fruit — dry, warm, coumarin-tinged.

No standard commercial extraction of cherry wood exists for perfumery. Small-scale distillation of cherry wood chips is possible but uncommon. The note is typically reconstructed from coumarin, benzaldehyde, and warm wood materials. Cherry wood smoking chips release similar aromatic compounds when heated.

U parfemima
Cherry tree wood provides a warm, mildly sweet woody base note. Reconstructed from coumarin (hay-sweet warmth), benzaldehyde traces (almond-cherry quality), and warm wood materials (sandalwood, cedarwood). Functions in orchard-wood, warm-wood, and mildly sweet compositions. The wood character is distinct from cherry fruit (gamma-decalactone, benzaldehyde dominant) and cherry blossom (delicate floral). Not widely available as a natural extract.
