Greengage Fragrances

The perfume note of Greengage offers a juicy, sweet aroma that encapsulates the essence of this much-loved summer fruit. It bursts forth with a rich, plum-like scent, reminiscent of freshly picked fruit warmed by the sun, offering an aroma that's both enticing and uplifting. This initial sweetness is nuanced by a subtle tartness, reflecting the fruit's slightly sour skin. As the scent matures, it reveals a hint of soft, green undertones, echoing the fruit's unripe state. The Greengage note infuses fragrances with a sense of sun-kissed abundance and playful zest, its scent capturing the nostalgic joy of a summer orchard in full bloom.

About Greengage Fragrances

Greengage is a variety of plum believed to have originated in Armenia before making its way to Western Europe via Persia and France, where it became a prized delicacy in French orchards. Named in England after Sir William Gage, who introduced it in the early eighteenth century, the greengage is celebrated for its distinctive pale green-gold skin and exceptionally sweet, honeyed flesh with a delicate floral undertone. It is smaller and more refined than most plums, with a flavour profile that has no real equal in the stone fruit world.

In perfumery, greengage offers a uniquely elegant fruity note — sweeter and more honeyed than a typical green plum, yet retaining a gentle, fresh tartness that keeps it clean and sophisticated. Its slightly floral, almost mirabelle-like quality means it bridges the world of stone fruit and white flowers beautifully. It appears in summery, light-touch compositions as well as in more structured chypres where its graceful sweetness complements mossy and woody bases. The greengage note rewards subtle treatment, adding luminosity and tenderness to blends.
