Wine
The 'Wine' note in perfumery is a complex accord, rarely a direct extract, designed to capture the multifaceted aroma of fermented grapes. It can range dramatically depending on the type of wine being evoked. A 'Red Wine' accord often presents with rich, dark, jammy fruit notes like blackcurrant, plum, and cherry, intertwined with spicy nuances (cinnamon, clove), earthy undertones, and a distinct tannic, slightly dry, or even leathery texture. It can feel deep, velvety, and slightly alcoholic or 'boozy'. A 'White Wine' accord might lean towards lighter, crisper fruit notes such as green apple, pear, citrus zest, and sometimes floral or mineral facets, often with a brighter, more acidic or effervescent quality. 'Sparkling Wine' adds a distinct bubbly, yeasty, or brioche-like aroma. The intensity varies; it can be a fleeting, effervescent top note, a rich, fruity heart note, or a deep, resonant base note contributing warmth and complexity. Projection is moderate to strong depending on the composition, and longevity is typically good, especially for richer red wine interpretations which can linger as part of the base.
