Jasmine Perfume
You often find it along fences, pergolas, or house walls. In winter, it may look like a simple green bush, but in spring, it bursts into bloom with its white flowers, filling the surrounding air with its fragrance. We’re obviously talking about jasmine. The scent of jasmine is, at first, very floral, green, and delicate (somewhat reminiscent of orange blossoms and their radiance), with musky and powdery nuances and an animalic base that makes it very warm and deep, as well as long-lasting. Its fragrance immediately brings to mind verdant spring gardens or the crisp air of summer mornings, and its evocative power and unusual facets have made it one of perfumers’ favorite flowers. Today, it is a prominent feature not only in women’s perfumes, but also in men’s and unisex fragrances, which leverage its unique notes to create complex, multi-faceted floral scents. But what’s the history of jasmine in perfumery? Today, we’ll discover it together.
The Scent of Jasmine: The Story of the White Flower in Perfumery
Jasmine originates from India, where it still holds significant ornamental and symbolic value. Its use in perfumery (and cosmetics) has deep roots: the Persians would often offer jasmine oil to guests during banquets, believing it had several beneficial properties related to sensuality. The Ancient Greeks and Romans learned of this Persian ointment, and the Romans renamed it Jasminum officinalis. However, it was in the 1600s that jasmine became a star in European perfumery. During this period, it gained popularity in France, where it began to be extensively cultivated in Grasse, the perfume capital of Provence, because it was highly sought after by perfumers to mask the scent of leather on ladies’ gloves. After World War I, it began to be grown in other Mediterranean regions, such as Italy (Calabria), Spain, Morocco, Egypt, and Tunisia, to reduce labor costs. However, the variety of jasmine from Grasse, with its cassis (blackcurrant) note, remained perfumers’ favorite and was considered the most precious. Today, the center of production has returned to India, its original home, and perfumery uses various jasmine varieties, ranging from natural essential oils to synthetic molecules reproduced in laboratories (such as benzyl acetate and, especially, hedione), depending on the floral nuance the perfumer wants to impart to their olfactory creation.
