Oscillating between a sensual sweetness and tangy tartness, the popular fruity note of cherry adds a characteristically almond nuance to citrus, fruity and floral accords. Adding a joyful pop of color, cherry notes can be found in both fine and functional perfumery. Cherry also pairs deliciously with vanilla, blending seamlessly with ambery accords and offering a seductive warmth with a surprising bitter almond bite.
A true globetrotter, the cherry has seen its fair share of travel over the centuries. This succulent little fruit is thought to have first been exported to Europe from the ancient Greek region of Kerasous (from which the cherry derives its name). The first cultivated cherry is recorded as having been brought to Rome by Roman general and statesman, Lucius Licinius Lucullus, who brought the fruit from northeastern Anatolia in 72 BC.
Essential oil cannot be extracted from cherries. For this reason, cherry notes are created synthetically, and are typically based on benzaldehyde—with its delectable musk or almond-like nuances. The cherry is native to the temperate regions of the Northern Hemisphere, with two species in America, three in Europe, and the remainder in Asia.
