About Geranium

Geranium is an aromatic floral note that combines rosy petals with green leaves, herbal freshness, and a minty-citrus lift. It often smells like flower, leaf, and stem at the same time.

Scent Profile

The profile is floral, green, herbal, rosy, and lightly spicy. It has the brightness of rose, the snap of crushed leaves, and a cool freshness that can feel close to mint, lemon, or aromatic herbs.

Use in Perfumery

Geranium works in the heart with rose, lavender, bergamot, patchouli, oakmoss, musks, spices, vetiver, and woods. It is useful in fougeres, chypres, roses, and clean aromatic compositions.

Did You Know?

That bridge quality helps it keep a composition lively without becoming sharp. In masculine-leaning structures, it can add floral nuance while preserving a clean herbal profile. In rose accords, it can add leaf, stem, and sparkle without changing the flower completely. Patchouli can make it feel more aromatic and grounded. Geranium is often used to support or extend rosy effects. It is greener than rose and more floral than many herbs, making it a practical bridge between floral and aromatic materials.
