Mushrooms is an earthy or mineral note that adds realism, dryness, and atmospheric depth to a fragrance. It may suggest soil, roots, stone, dust, damp ground, mushrooms, or cool mineral surfaces depending on the accord. In perfumery, these notes are used to make compositions feel grounded, natural, or avant-garde. Mushrooms pairs well with vetiver, moss, patchouli, dry woods, leather, incense, rain notes, musk, and dark florals.
