The bay leaf scent is aromatic, warm, and slightly spicy, providing an earthy and herbaceous touch to fragrances. Known for its subtle complexity, bay leaf offers a blend of green, woody, and clove-like notes, ideal for grounding and comforting scented creations.
Extracted from the leaves of the bay laurel tree, this scent is enriched by key molecules like eugenol and cineole, which lend it its spicy and camphoraceous qualities. Bay leaf is commonly found in heart or base accords, where it adds depth and warmth to herbal, spicy, or woody compositions.
Compared to other herbal notes like sage or thyme, bay leaf is more robust and slightly resinous, making it a perfect choice for autumnal and cozy fragrance profiles. Ideal for candles, soaps, and diffusers, the bay leaf scent enhances your products with a rich, earthy aroma.
