Cotton Candy, also known as Fairy Floss, is a popular confectionery made from spun sugar. In the world of fragrances, Cotton Candy is used to impart a sweet, playful, and whimsical aroma, reminiscent of carnivals and fairs. This ingredient is particularly prevalent in gourmand fragrances, a category known for scents that resemble edible flavors. While natural cotton candy does not have a significant aroma, its representation in fragrances is achieved through synthetic means. These synthetic compounds are formulated to mimic the sugary, sweet smell of cotton candy. The use of such synthetic notes allows perfumers to create a sense of nostalgia and youthful joy, evoking memories of sweet treats and fun times.
