👉 Flower fumes are volatile organic compounds released by flowers as they open and release their fragrances into the air. These compounds, often a mix of terpenes, benzenoids, and other aromatic molecules, can have distinct scents ranging from sweet and floral to earthy and musky. The fumes are produced by specialized glands within the petals and can be intensified by factors like sunlight, temperature, and humidity. While often pleasant and used in perfumes and aromatherapy, some flower fumes can also cause temporary irritation or allergic reactions in sensitive individuals.
