Dewfruit opens with an exotic burst of lychee and raspberry, both fresh and sophisticated. The cassis heart emerges powerfully—this is the base's signature, built around Givaudan's molecule Neocaspirene. Subtle herbal-green undertones keep the fruit from becoming candied, lending an elegant naturalism. This iconic base originated at Quest International before Givaudan's acquisition and has become essential in modern perfumery. The sparkling fruity top note in Thierry Mugler's Angel came from Dewfruit, demonstrating its power to define legendary compositions. Use this base specifically to access the Neocaspirene molecule, which delivers cassis character that was difficult to achieve before its development. Use Dewfruit between 0.1% and 5% in your compositions. It transforms rose, violet, and cassie accords with fruity radiance. The base works beautifully in chypres needing modern fruit, gourmand compositions, and abstract contemporary designs. Expect bright, happy complexity without excessive sweetness.
