Cotton candy is a spun sugar treat made with only air and colored sugar. Invented in 1897 by a dentist and a confectioner, it debuted at the 1904 St. Louis World’s Fair. It is also known as fairy floss, candy floss and papa’s beard. In perfume, it is a gourmand note built primarily from ethyl maltol, a synthetic compound providing a warm, sugary, caramel-like scent that recalls carnival treats. Often blended with vanilla, musk or red fruits, it creates an addictive, nostalgic aroma popular in sweet, playful fragrances.
