About Apple SymTrap
Apple SymTrap is a natural apple extract produced by the German fragrance manufacturer Symrise, using the company's proprietary SymTrap technology. The process captures aromatic molecules from water-based side streams of apple processing by adsorbing them onto a column and then releasing them with a food-grade solvent. Symrise presents the resulting ingredient as a 100% natural fruit extract.
Scent Profile
The scent opens with a **crisp, juicy green apple character**, bright and watery rather than candy-sweet. The green impression of the peel meets a softer sweetness associated with the flesh, recalling freshly cut fruit. It offers a way to suggest the juicy character of apple, with its sweetness balanced by the clearer, fresher impression of the skin.
Use in Perfumery
Apple SymTrap is most often used as a top note, bringing a fresh, lifelike fruit opening to a composition. Its balance of green fruit and soft sweetness lets it sit alongside citrus, green notes, and clean woody materials, where it can round out an apple accord built with other fragrance ingredients. It suits modern fruity fragrances and lighter, airy compositions that benefit from a transparent apple signature.
