About Hazelnut Milk
Hazelnut milk combines a nutty aroma with the softness associated with milk. In perfumery it is expressed as an accord: several fragrance materials brought together to create one impression. The result suggests the smooth character of a drink made with nuts.
Scent Profile
A rounded nutty character meets creamy, gentle sweetness. Woods and resins can give it a warm impression, while juicy fruit can suggest a lighter drink. The balance of the surrounding materials changes how clearly the nuttiness or milky softness comes through.
Use in Perfumery
Hazelnut milk appears in gourmand fragrances that recall sweet foods, as well as in creamy woody compositions. Sandalwood, benzoin and tonka bean can build on its smoothness and warmth. Fruit such as pear, or a spice such as black pepper, can also be used to set off a juicy character or spicy bite against that softness.
