Визначення

A barely-there green whisper. Poinsettia smells like sap from a broken stem, vegetal and watery, with a faint latex undertone.

Запах

Faintly green and vegetal, with a watery transparency. The scent suggests broken plant stems more than flowers. A subtle milky-latex quality sits underneath, neither sweet nor bitter. Less aromatic than a geranium leaf, less sweet than a lily.

Докладно

Poinsettia (Euphorbia pulcherrima) is a tropical shrub native to Mexico and Central America, famous for its red bracts rather than its insignificant flowers. The plant belongs to the Euphorbiaceae family and produces a milky latex sap when stems are broken.

In perfumery, poinsettia is a fantasy note. The actual plant has minimal fragrance: a faint green-vegetal scent from the sap and leaves, nothing floral in the conventional sense. The fantasy accord attempts to capture what one imagines a poinsettia might smell like: something green, watery, slightly sweet, with a subtle tropical warmth.

Perfumers who use this note typically build it from light green materials, watery florals, and a touch of milky lactonic sweetness to carries the latex sap. It functions as a modifier in green-floral compositions, adding a tropical-greenhouse quality. The note is rare and primarily conceptual, appearing in fragrances that reference winter holidays or tropical botanicals.

Цікавий факт

The red parts of a poinsettia are not petals but modified leaves called bracts. The actual flowers are the small yellow structures at the center, called cyathia.

У парфумерії

Poinsettia is a fantasy modifier used sparingly in green-floral and tropical compositions. It provides a greenhouse-vegetal quality, evoking living plants rather than cut flowers. The note is conceptual: the actual plant has minimal fragrance, so the accord is a perfumer's interpretation built from green, watery, and lactonic materials. It appears in holiday-themed and botanical concept fragrances.
