The English name pomegranate comes from the Latin for “an apple with many seeds” (each fruit contains 500–600 seeds), and in Japan it is generally called zakuro. In perfumery, it is used to lend a fruity character or a wine-like effect. It also has a slight spiciness and leathery quality.
What Does It Smell Like in Perfume?
In perfume, pomegranate (zakuro) is a fruity note with depth, layering sweet-tart juice with the astringency of green peel, dewy flowers, and a subtle woody quality. Unlike the straightforward sweetness of berries, it combines clear tartness with a slightly dark fruitiness, adding depth while giving a fruity composition definition. As a perfume ingredient, it does not refer to one standard natural extract; instead, it is expressed as a reconstructed accord in which several materials build juiciness, greenness, and floral and woody nuances. Its balance varies from one fragrance to another, ranging from vivid tartness to ripe sweetness.
