Marine Accords

Photo Marine Accords :: fragrance ingredients

Marine Accords are a unique and innovative group of scent components used in perfumery to evoke the essence of the ocean. These accords are not derived from a single natural source but are a composition of various elements that together create the impression of the sea. In perfumery, Marine Accords are appreciated for their ability to impart a fresh, clean, and often slightly salty aroma reminiscent of sea air. They play a crucial role in creating aquatic and fresh fragrances, often serving as the heart of these scent compositions. Typically created synthetically due to the challenge of capturing the complex and transient nature of oceanic scents from natural sources, the components of Marine Accords can vary, but they often include synthetic molecules designed to mimic the smell of wet sand, saltwater, seaweed, or the ocean breeze.

Natural or Synthetic?
Marine Accords are predominantly synthetic due to the difficulty in extracting and preserving the ephemeral and complex nature of oceanic scents from natural sources. Synthetic chemistry allows for the recreation of these unique oceanic notes with consistency and stability in perfumes.
