Created by perfumers, the praline note reproduces the sweet, gourmand scent of caramel with molecules such as Maltol or Ethyl Maltol. Reminiscent of childhood sweets, praline is decadently warm, vanilla-sweet, and adds a balsamic facet to fragrances. A smooth, milky, and candy floss-scented base note.
In perfumery, the milky-sweet note of praline owes its success to the creation of “Angel,” a perfume developed by Thierry Mugler and first released in 1992, and then quickly taken up in “Lolita Lempicka” in 1997. These fragrances marked the beginning of a new gourmand-obsessed era in the history of perfumery, taking notes like praline by the hand and bringing them to the forefront.
