Bellini Accord
An accord of peach purée and sparkling prosecco, fruity and effervescent.
Beverage
Origin
The Bellini is an Italian cocktail of peach purée topped with prosecco. A Bellini accord sketches that drink in scent, pairing ripe fruit with the lightness of sparkling wine, and is best read as an evocation of the glass rather than a recipe.
Scent Profile
At the center is the soft, sweet flesh of ripe peach. Around it come a bright, dry acidity that recalls sparkling wine and an airy lift that suggests rising bubbles. The sweetness never turns heavy; what lingers is a fresh, juicy sparkle, like the moment a glass is first poured.
Perfumery Use
In Anna Sui Sundae Pretty Pink, the Bellini accord sits in the heart with plum blossom and blue cyclamen. It lends those flowers a cocktail-like sweetness and a lively, effervescent brightness.
