Collection: Blood Fragrances

Blood, while not a traditional note in perfumery, is sometimes evoked metaphorically to describe certain metallic or iron-like facets in a fragrance. This visceral, raw essence can be reminiscent of the metallic tang of freshly drawn blood or the saltiness of wounded skin. It may evoke powerful emotions, from the intimate warmth of skin-to-skin contact to more haunting, primal memories. In modern niche perfumery, "blood" or "metallic" accords can be used to add a provocative, edgy twist to a scent, challenging and engaging the wearer in a deeply personal olfactory experience. Often, the intent isn't to replicate the scent of blood directly but to hint at its characteristics, thereby adding depth, contrast, and a touch of the unexpected.

Description

Occasionally, when experiencing odors from perfumes or household products, one notices a metallic appearance. People often call it a metallic smell, saying that it smells of metal or steel. But does metal smell? To perceive an odor, it must be volatile; the molecules must physically fly into your nose, make contact with a receptor, and initiate a chain of biochemical processes that the brain interprets as a certain type of smell. But it doesn't appear that metals are excessively volatile, with the exception of mercury. In addition to this, the smell is a characteristic of substances with a molecular structure, but substances with an ionic lattice for example, inorganic salts or a metallic lattice iron should not smell.
