Sea Salt in fragrances is used to evoke the scent of the ocean and bring a fresh, marine quality to a perfume. It does not have a traditional aroma like flowers or herbs but instead contributes to creating an olfactory impression of the seaside. The use of Sea Salt in perfumes is a modern concept, aimed at capturing the essence of the beach and oceanic environments. It imparts a clean, fresh, and somewhat mineral character to fragrances, often associated with the feeling of being by the sea. This makes it popular in fragrances designed to evoke freshness, openness, and natural simplicity. In fragrance compositions, Sea Salt is known for adding a certain crispness and enhancing other aquatic and fresh notes. It is especially effective in creating atmospheric or thematic scents, helping to transport the wearer to coastal scenes. Its use is more about creating an experience or mood rather than contributing a specific note.
Natural or Synthetic?
Sea Salt itself does not have an aroma that can be extracted; the 'sea salt' scent in perfumery is a synthetic creation designed to mimic the fresh, mineral qualities associated with the ocean. It's a conceptual representation rather than an actual extract from sea salt.
