Делонікс королівський

Two trees, one name. The flame tree (Delonix regia) bears vivid red flowers in tropical heat. The Christmas tree (Metrosideros excelsa, New Zealand pohutukawa) blooms crimson in December. Both are scentless spectacles.

Запах
Докладно
Цікавий факт
The pohutukawa (Metrosideros excelsa) is called 'New Zealand's Christmas tree' because it blooms in December -- midsummer in the Southern Hemisphere. A single specimen on Cape Reinga, at the northern tip of New Zealand, is considered sacred by Maori as the point where spirits of the dead depart for the afterlife.

У парфумерії
Christmas tree / flame tree is a visual-to-olfactory fantasy accord for the heart zone. Since neither Delonix regia nor Metrosideros excelsa carries significant natural fragrance, the accord translates their visual spectacle (masses of red tropical flowers) into scent. Built from warm florals (geraniol, linalool), green-leaf notes, and faint honey. Works in tropical, summery, and southern-hemisphere compositions.
