Angelica

Angelica is an aromatic herb with a distinctive, earthy-green scent. It is derived from the roots and seeds of the Angelica plant, which is native to Northern Europe. The prized Angelica Archangelica variety, grown in the Tyrolean Alps, is particularly valued for its complex, bittersweet aroma.

Angelica has a grounding, earthy quality that can evoke a sense of calm and introspection. Its bittersweet nuances make it well-suited for use in autumnal or winter fragrances, where it can add depth and sophistication. Angelica-based scents are often worn to create a contemplative, introspective mood.

Angelica is commonly used as a heart or base note in fragrances, where it can add an earthy, woody, and slightly bittersweet character. It is often paired with other green, herbal, or spicy notes to create complex, sophisticated scent profiles. Angelica is a key ingredient in many classic fougère and chypre-style perfumes.
