Rum Absolute

Photo Rum Absolute :: fragrance ingredients

Rum Absolute, a distinctive ingredient in perfumery, is derived from the sugarcane-based spirit, rum. It is not directly extracted from the rum beverage, but rather created to mimic its rich and warm aroma. This ingredient is often used to add a deep, warm, and slightly sweet character to fragrances. It's particularly effective in oriental or gourmand scents, where its boozy, rich profile complements other sweet and spicy notes. Rum Absolute can lend an exotic twist to a fragrance, evoking feelings of warmth and indulgence. It is important to note that Rum Absolute in perfumery is a recreation of the scent of rum rather than an extract from the drink itself. This allows for consistency and control in the fragrance creation process.

Natural or Synthetic?
The usage of Rum Absolute in perfumery can be both natural and synthetic. Its natural form is not directly extracted from rum but is rather a recreation of its scent. Synthetic forms are also used for consistency in fragrance profiles.
