Ginkgo, derived from the leaves of the Ginkgo biloba tree, is known for its unique, fresh, and green scent. In perfumery, ginkgo adds a botanical and earthy dimension, reminiscent of a damp forest floor and freshly cut greenery. The scent of ginkgo in perfumery is typically extracted from the leaves through natural processes. Ginkgo adds an element of freshness and earthiness to fragrance compositions and is often used in fresh, green, and herbal fragrance families.
Natural or Synthetic?
Ginkgo Biloba does not have a significant natural fragrance that can be extracted for use in perfumery. Therefore, its scent in perfumery is synthetically created, often using a combination of green and earthy aroma chemicals to mimic a semblance of the plant's character.
