Floral oils consist of complex alcohols and esters, giving them rich, sweet, and soothing scent profiles that function as fragrance heart notes.
- Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia): Exhibits a sweet, herbaceous, fresh floral scent with balmy undertones. It functions as a top-to-middle note, widely celebrated for its calming and stress-alleviating qualities.
- Ylang Ylang (Cananga odorata): Features an exotic, intensely sweet, heavy floral profile with warm, soft spicy undertones. Its low-to-medium volatility allows it to bridge middle and base notes effectively.
- Geranium (Pelargonium graveolens): Provides a rosy, sweet, fresh green floral scent with subtle minty facets, functioning as a stabilizing middle note in cosmetic and aromatic formulations.
