Запах

Sweet, hay-coumarin, green-grassy. The definitive 'new-mown hay' scent — warm, sweet, slightly narcotic. Greener and more complex than pure synthetic coumarin because the natural grass provides herbal context. The smell of late spring in European countryside.

Теруар і переробка

Докладно

Flouve (Anthoxanthum odoratum), sweet vernal grass, is the botanical source of the 'new-mown hay' scent. The plant contains coumarin, which is released when the grass is cut and begins to wilt — the sweetness that defines hayfield fragrance.

The essential oil (rarely produced) is dominated by coumarin, with supporting herbal and green-grassy compounds. In perfumery, flouve provides the same character as synthetic coumarin but with additional green complexity and a hay-specific quality.

Sweet vernal grass is one of the earliest grasses to flower in European meadows (March-June). Its coumarin content makes it unpalatable to livestock — animals avoid it, which is why it persists in grazed pastures while other grasses are eaten.

Цікавий факт

Synthetic coumarin (first synthesized by William Perkin in 1868) was the first synthetic fragrance ingredient used in perfumery — in Houbigant's Fougere Royale (1882). Before synthesis, flouve (sweet vernal grass) and tonka bean were the only sources. The entire fougere family descends from this one molecule.

Отримання й хімія

Спосіб отримання

Rarely produced as essential oil. The plant is more frequent as a tincture or absolute. Coumarin content approximately 1-2% of dry plant weight. Main use is conceptual reference rather than commercial production.
