Herbal Notes

Herbal notes are fresh, green, and aromatic fragrance components that evoke the natural scent of garden herbs and foliage. Their scent profile is invigorating, slightly earthy, and can range from sweet to slightly bitter or spicy, adding a natural and uplifting quality to perfumes. Herbal notes impart a crisp, vibrant character and are often used as top or middle notes to create a refreshing and balanced composition. They pair beautifully with citrus, floral, and woody notes, contributing to fragrances that are modern, refreshing, and sophisticated.

History & Production: Herbal notes have been valued for centuries in traditional medicine, culinary practices, and perfumery, often sourced from plants such as basil, thyme, rosemary, and sage. Essential oils and extracts are typically obtained through steam distillation or solvent extraction of the leaves, stems, or flowers, capturing their distinctive, fresh aroma. In modern perfumery, herbal notes are appreciated for their ability to add a green, aromatic edge that enhances the complexity and freshness of a fragrance. These notes evoke a sense of nature and vitality, making perfumes feel dynamic, clean, and harmonious.
