Pink Pepper (Baies Rose)
Pink pepper, also known as Baies Rose, is a vibrant and spicy fragrance note with a fresh, rosy, and slightly sweet aroma that adds a lively and sparkling quality to perfumes. Its scent profile is warm, bright, and subtly complex, evoking a sense of sophistication and energy. Pink pepper is often used as a top or middle note, bringing 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 comes from the dried berries of the Schinus molle tree, which is native to South America but is also cultivated in regions such as Madagascar and Réunion. Although not related to black pepper, its name derives from its 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.
