In the realm of fragrance, floral scents play a significant role, with one major category being “white flowers.” Contrary to the literal interpretation of white-colored flowers, the classification of “white flower perfume” is based on their fragrance rather than their color.
Most white flowers exhibit a sweet and clear scent characterized by the presence of a chemical compound called indole. Pure indole has an unpleasant odor, and a faint hint of this can be detected in many natural white flowers. Common white flowers include orange blossom, jasmine, gardenia, tuberose, magnolia, and honeysuckle.
Even though some flowers like honeysuckle and magnolia are yellow, they fall under the white flower category due to their fragrance characteristics. On the other hand, lily of the valley, despite being white, does not fit the profile and is not considered a white flower.
White flower perfume is known for the pure and delicate aromas, capturing a sense of innocence and ethereal beauty. If you still believe that rose and musk are the only weapons of seduction, it’s time to elevate your fragrance game!
Branddecant has curated a list of the most representative “white flower” perfumes, perfect for embracing your inner princess. Get ready to adorn yourself and join me on a journey of gentleness!
