TRUFFLE
Truffle has a complex, earthy, and musky aroma with deep umami undertones. It presents a rich, dark, and mysterious scent profile combining fungal, woody, and slightly sulfurous notes with subtle hints of garlic and fermented characteristics. The scent is intense, distinctive, and highly penetrating.
Origin & Extraction
Truffles are rare edible fungi that grow underground in symbiosis with certain tree species, primarily in Europe. The most prized varieties are the white truffle (Tuber magnatum) from Italy and the black truffle (Tuber melanosporum) from France. In perfumery, truffle notes are typically created through synthetic molecules that replicate the key aromatic compounds found in natural truffles.
