Marian plum
A reconstructed Southeast Asian fruit accord — sweet-juicy, faintly floral, with mango-and-apricot tendencies. Despite the name, marian plum is NOT a Prunus — it belongs to the Anacardiaceae (cashew / mango family). The fruit's aroma reflects this: closer to mango than to any temperate plum.

Miris
Razvoj tokom vremena
Sharp fruity-ester top — methyl and ethyl butanoate forward, with a green-leaf hexanal lift.
The β-damascenone heart emerges, threading a mango-rose floral angle through the fruity body; methyl anthranilate adds grape-skin depth.
A quiet ester memory; the tropical character has burned off, leaving a faint sweet-floral tail.

U parfemima
Marian plum is a Fantasy/Concept tropical accord — there is no commercial extract. It sits in the heart, contributing a juicy-fruity lift with mango-floral character. It pairs naturally with mango, ylang-ylang, frangipani and tropical-fruit reconstructions. The note is rare in fine fragrance; when used, it functions as a regional Southeast Asian alternative to mango.
