About Vapor

Vapor is not a specific natural material or aroma chemical, but an abstract fantasy accord used to create a sensation of steam or humid air within a fragrance. It is often combined with aquatic or clean notes to add a light, diffusive atmosphere. Its exact composition is undisclosed, and there is no standard definition, extraction method, or manufacturing process as a perfumery raw material.

Scent Profile

The scent of vapor evokes steam, mist, or humid air, with a transparent, slightly sweet or dry impression. The actual smell depends on the context of the perfume in which it is used; it does not exist in isolation. It is often used alongside watery or ozonic elements to emphasize a sense of airiness and moisture.

Use in Perfumery

Vapor is used in top or heart notes to impart a fresh, diffusive quality, particularly in fragrances themed around the sea, rain, or atmosphere. It helps convey a sense of humidity or steam. However, its use is limited to specific perfumes, and there is no standard application documented in perfumery literature.
