mineral notes

The first rain after a long spell without it releases geosmin from the ground, a molecule made by soil bacteria that the nose detects in vanishing traces, and the resulting petrichor is the wet-stone side of mineral notes. The other side is chalk dust, slate and the struck-flint smell that wine tasters call gunflint, and perfumers compose both with synthetics that bring coolness and a sense of hardness to a composition.

How this is calculated

Each perfume counts once, even if a note appears at multiple pyramid levels. Percentages use the documented sample in each section, not the entire catalog. Associations can overlap and do not add up to 100%.

Rankings require at least 10 perfumes with relevant data; an association must occur in at least 3. Only the most frequent associations are shown.
