Pink Pepper
Pink pepper, also known as Baies Rose, is a vibrant and spicy fragrance note with a fresh, rosy, and subtly sweet aroma that adds a lively and sparkling quality to perfumes. Its scent profile is warm, bright, and slightly complex, evoking a sense of energy and sophistication. Pink pepper is often used as a top or middle note, imparting a modern, effervescent twist to fragrance compositions. It pairs beautifully with citrus, florals, and woody notes, contributing to dynamic and elegant scents.
History & Production: Pink pepper is derived from the dried berries of the Schinus molle tree, native to South America but also cultivated in regions such as Madagascar and Réunion. Despite its name, pink pepper is not related to black pepper but has a similar peppery aroma and appearance. The essential oil is obtained through steam distillation of the dried berries, capturing their bright, spicy essence. Pink pepper has gained popularity in contemporary perfumery for its ability to add a unique, lively character and depth to both classic and modern fragrances.
