The scent of strawberry is a bright, juicy, and playful note that brings a fruity sweetness to perfumes. It is often used as a top note, delivering an immediate burst of sweetness and adding a youthful, fresh energy to compositions. Strawberry can mimic the scent of fresh strawberries, but its natural essence cannot be directly extracted like essential oils. Instead, perfumers recreate its scent using synthetic compounds, such as aldehydes, esters, and lactones. The strawberry note can have different personalities depending on how it's presented, from the tangy yet sweet balance of French Gariguette strawberries to the sugary delight of strawberry syrup and fizz candy
