Posidonia

Photo Posidonia :: fragrance ingredients

Posidonia, known as seagrass, particularly Posidonia oceanica, is used in perfumery not in its natural form but through synthetic recreations to evoke its fresh, saline qualities. These synthetic versions are crafted to deliver a crisp, green aquatic note reminiscent of the sea's vastness and the marine life it supports. Posidonia adds a unique green and marine quality to fragrances, fitting primarily into aquatic and fresh fragrance families, ideal for scents that seek to capture the essence of the ocean and offer a fresh, airy connection to the natural world.

Natural or Synthetic?
Posidonia is synthesized in perfumery to mimic the subtle aquatic and green notes of seagrass, which are otherwise challenging to extract naturally. This approach allows for a consistent and durable scent profile in fragrances.
