Tropifruit Givco 205

This tropical fruit base by Givaudan is sweet and tropical, slightly syrupy, complex and has a light fresh-synthetic nuance. It is a nostalgic smell for me and it reminds me of fragrance oils and bath bombs from "new age" shops in the early 2000s. Maybe it was used in some of those products. Some will find the smell synthetic, however despite that, I find comfort in its unique olfactory fingerprint. You can use this in a similar way to Firmenich's famous Cassis base 345B. Both are easy to use tropical fruit bases.
