Angel's Trumpet Fragrances

Angel's Trumpet Fragrances

Angel's trumpet is the pendulous, trumpet-shaped bloom of Brugmansia, a shrubby tree native to the tropical forests of South America. Famous for releasing its perfume after dark, the flower yields little extractable oil, so in fragrance it is most often built as a reconstituted floral accord rather than drawn from the living plant.

Its scent is lush and heady: a creamy, narcotic white floral with the dewy softness of lily and the warmth of a tropical blossom. Green, faintly fruity, and almost honeyed facets weave through it, while a cool, slightly aqueous lift keeps the sweetness from turning cloying as it settles on skin.

In composition, angel's trumpet sits among the white florals and lends a romantic, opulent character to a fragrance's heart. It pairs naturally with jasmine, tuberose, and ylang-ylang, brightens with citrus or green notes above, and gains depth from musks, sandalwood, and soft woods in the base.
