Fennel

Fennel is an aromatic and herbaceous fragrance note with a slightly sweet, anise-like scent profile that carries subtle earthy and spicy undertones. Its aroma is fresh, crisp, and invigorating, adding a natural and green quality to perfumes. Fennel imparts a bright, spicy character and is often used as a middle note to create freshness and complexity in fragrance compositions. It pairs beautifully with citrus, green, and floral notes, contributing to fragrances that are lively, unique, and full of warmth.

History & Production: Fennel (Foeniculum vulgare) is native to the Mediterranean region and has been used for centuries in culinary, medicinal, and aromatic applications. The essential oil is extracted through steam distillation of the seeds, capturing its sweet, slightly spicy aroma. In perfumery, fennel is valued for its distinctive anise-like scent that enhances the brightness and complexity of fragrances, evoking a sense of freshness and natural vitality.
