Cannabis/Marijuana
Cannabis, also known as marijuana, is a bold and earthy fragrance note with a distinct, herbaceous scent profile that carries subtle woody, musky, and slightly spicy undertones. Its aroma is deep, natural, and unconventional, adding a raw and intriguing quality to perfumes. Cannabis imparts a green, resinous character and is often used as a middle or base note to create depth and uniqueness in fragrance compositions. It pairs beautifully with woody, spicy, and floral notes, contributing to fragrances that are edgy, complex, and full of natural allure.
History & Production: Cannabis has been cultivated and valued for thousands of years for its aromatic, medicinal, and cultural significance. In perfumery, the scent of cannabis is recreated using synthetic accords to capture its unique, earthy aroma without any psychoactive effects. This note is prized for its ability to add an earthy, slightly smoky depth that enhances the richness and intrigue of fragrances, evoking a sense of natural authenticity and boldness.
