What does the word peach mean?
The scientific name for the peach is Prunus persica. It belongs to the Rosaceae family. Its name comes from the Latin "persica," meaning "of Persia," as it was considered native to Persia. However, it actually originated in China and was introduced to Persia by the Romans.
In the beginning…
The peach is a fruit with a long history in perfumery. The Greeks and Romans already used peaches to create perfumes. In the Middle Ages, the Arabs also contributed to the use of peaches in perfumery to create fruity and sweet fragrances. Today, peach is still a common ingredient in women's perfumes. It is often combined with other fruity notes such as raspberry or cherry to create light and fresh scents. Peach-based perfumes can also be combined with floral notes such as jasmine or rose to create more sophisticated fragrances.
The peach originated in China, where it was first cultivated over 4,000 years ago. It was later introduced to Persia and then Europe by the Romans. Over time, the peach has become a very popular fruit worldwide, cultivated in many regions: Asia, Europe, and North America.
Fishing culture
Peach cultivation, the fruit of the peach tree (Prunus persica), is practiced in many regions of the world. Peach cultivation requires a temperate to warm climate, with sufficient cold weather to allow for good winter dormancy. Peach trees are generally planted in spring in well-drained soils rich in organic matter. Regular pruning of the trees is necessary to maintain a shape suitable for harvesting and to promote good air and light circulation. Protection against diseases and pests is essential, with the use of biological control methods and plant protection products if necessary. Peaches are harvested when ripe, usually by hand, to preserve their flavor and quality.
Fishing agreements
Peach perfume is created from accords rather than pure peach extracts for several reasons. This depends on the availability of raw materials; peaches are a seasonal fruit and their harvest can be limited. Furthermore, by using accords, perfumers can precisely control the olfactory characteristics of the peach note. However, it is important to note that the exact composition of a peach perfume can vary from brand to brand and from perfumer to perfumer. Some perfumers may choose to use natural peach extracts, while others prefer to create a peach accord from synthetic and natural ingredients.
Quality Control: By using accords, perfumers can precisely control the quality and olfactory characteristics of the peach note. They can adjust the proportions and ingredients to achieve the desired scent, while ensuring olfactory consistency and stability.
