Aldehydic Floral
The prototype of this genre is Chanel’s No.5 which first gave an over-dosage of aldehydes into a floral composition, making these waxy, synthesized materials hiss like a hot iron on a clean cotton shirt. This gave the characteristic clean and sharp element that these fragrances are famous for. Contemporary fragrances in this style include Sicily (Dolce & Gabbana) and also 1831 Norma Bellini (Histoires de Parfums).
