Green Pepper

Green pepper is a fresh, crisp, and slightly spicy fragrance note with green, vegetal undertones. Its scent profile is bright, zesty, and invigorating, adding a natural, lively quality to perfumes. Green pepper is often used as a top or middle note to impart a fresh and aromatic spiciness that enhances the vibrancy of a fragrance. It pairs well with citrus, florals, and woody notes, contributing to perfumes that are modern, refreshing, and sophisticated.

History & Production: Green pepper comes from the unripe fruit of the Piper nigrum plant, which is the same plant that produces black and white pepper when processed differently. In perfumery, the scent of green pepper is usually recreated using natural extracts or synthetic accords to capture its fresh and zesty aroma. Green pepper notes are valued for their ability to add a crisp, herbaceous quality to fragrances, making them feel more vibrant and alive. This unique note adds an edge of green spiciness to modern perfume compositions, enhancing their complexity and refreshing character.
