CALYPSONE

Calypsone is a fragrance molecule with a watery melon and watermelon character, joined by citrus, marine and lily-of-the-valley nuances. It offers more than a general clean-water impression: the fruit and floral facets give its freshness a recognisable shape. It can suit green floral ideas, where a watery accent makes the bouquet feel more open.

Givaudan introduced Calypsone to its perfumers’ palette in 2008. The company describes its usefulness in green flowers such as honeysuckle and in citrus openings. In finished perfumes, it can also appear beside watery fruits and tropical flowers. It is a created aroma material, not an extract of melon or seawater. Consider it when exploring fresh fragrances that connect fruit, flowers and an airy marine feeling.
