Pear

Extracting essential oil from pears is nearly impossible - pears are composed mostly of water, and simply don’t yield oil through traditional methods like steam distillation or cold pressing. As a result, perfumers typically rely on synthetic compounds to recreate the fruit’s scent.

Ffern’s nose, Elodie, took a different approach. She turned to a naturally derived molecule that captures the essence of pear. Through the fermentation of sugarcane, this ester is formed in a process that is entirely natural and chemically identical to the molecule found in pear fruit. The result is a scent that is true to pear - sweet, green and fruity.
