This is not the top note accord of ginger infused Miracle Lancôme but a fruit with special effects. Synsepalum dulcificum has the amazing ability to change the taste of bitter and sour foods into something very sweet. You squeeze a lime and enjoy it like the best Florida orange. The fleshy part contains a protein called miraculin and it seems that it distorts the perception for 30min to 2 hours.
I wish that there would be something similar for fragrances (in terms of perception or fragrance release systems). For 2 hours you smell like an innocent lily and then you become a deadly sensual flower or something unexpected when you layer it with a fresh cologne. Tom Ford would love to have a "miraculin" fragrance.
