HOME FRAGRANCE TRENDS FOR 2009
Home is the new sanctuary, a place where we feel safe and protected from the stress of the outside world. Create a comforting environment with home fragrances that reflect wholesome living. Capture the outdoors with sparkling nuances in harmony with nature. Surround yourself with scent, the ultimate and affordable sensory indulgence.
FRUIT:
Fruit fragrances have great appeal no matter what the season. This year we will experience the resurgence of single fruit themes for the Summer, while fusion fruit fragrances resurface in the Fall. Regardless of the season, realistic juicy tones are recreated with citrus and green accents that put the emphasis on nature for contemporary appeal. Sugar, caramel, spices, maple and vanilla blend with traditional fruit for wholesome gourmand inspired fruit themes. Fusion blends go tropical in the Spring and Summer, and in the Fall and Winter fruity notes blend with wood and pine for imaginative themes.
Suggested Summer Theme: Sugared Cherries
Suggested Winter Theme: Apples & Brown Sugar
FLORAL:
Celebrate Spring and Summer with the smell of flowers. Big, bold florals create opulent themes with tuberose, peony and rose playing a leading role. Retro flowers balance the palette with delicate tones and dainty bouquets. Honeysuckle, daisy, apple blossom and sunflower lift our spirits with their innocent appeal. Natural nuances are recreated with the use of fresh green and liquid ozone notes that add sparkle.
Suggested Summer Theme: Tuberose Tango
BOTANICAL:
Nature inspired botanical home fragrances capture the consumer with green themes for every season. Asian influence continues to generate interest in tea and bamboo, while the influence of the eco lifestyle provides a platform for the remaining botanical themes by using nuances of rich foliage. Herbs are balanced in artful blends for the Spring and Summer, while Fall and Winter fragrances are based on wood themes. Autumn vegetables get spicy accents for comforting blends. Complexity in the botanical category balances the simplicity of other fragrance categories.
Suggested Summer Theme: Verbena Tea
Suggested Winter Theme: Sugar Pine
GOURMAND:
Nostalgic appeal is created with the wide selection of gourmand home fragrances available throughout the year. Old fashioned desserts continue to create sensory appeal for the summer, as a collection of scones, truffles and cakes provide calorie free indulgence. Beverages continue their popularity, with gourmet coffee and mulled wine or cider crossing over categories with fruit and spice for Winter appeal. Spiced cakes and pies continue as favorites for the Holidays, and cookies themes are twisted with tones of fruit, spice and citrus for newness. Sweetness is a ubiquitous characteristic of the Gourmand category, and vanilla is reinvented in the form of caramel, maple, amaretto and sugar.
Suggested Summer Theme: Waffle Cones
Suggested Winter Theme: Cinnamon Cookie Dough
FANTASY:
Nature inspires the majority of our fantasy home fragrance themes this year. Freshness prevails in all fragrance themes, as clean, clear tones renew the spirit. For Summer themes, elemental fragrances refresh the senses with rain, mist and water inspired scents. Destinations continue to create intrigue, and sea side themes lead in destination inspired blends. Winter fantasy fragrances continue the elemental inspiration as scents based on ice, snow and frost get fresh mint accents. Home and heritage is celebrated with fantasy blends of spice, fruit, wood and green tones for nostalgic holiday appeal.
Suggested Summer Theme: Crystal Bay
Suggested Winter Theme: Holiday Sparkle
