Angelica

Angelica is a green, herbal fragrance note with a fresh, slightly earthy and aromatic character. It combines subtle spicy, musky, and root-like nuances with a gentle bitterness. In perfumery, angelica adds natural freshness and depth, often appearing in herbal, woody, and aromatic compositions to create a balanced and elegant scent profile.

Chemistry and Molecular Structure

The scent of angelica is mainly composed of terpenes and lactones, including compounds such as α-pinene, β-phellandrene, and angelica lactones. These molecules contain cyclic carbon structures and oxygenated functional groups that influence their aroma. Their molecular composition creates the characteristic green, herbal, slightly musky, and earthy scent associated with angelica in perfumery.
