Blackcurrant
Description
Blackcurrant is a tart, fruity note with a distinct black berry aroma. It comes from the small, dark purple berries of the blackcurrant shrub, which is native to northern Europe and Asia. The berries are prized for their intense, almost wine-like flavor and are commonly used in jams, juices, and liqueurs.
How it feels
Blackcurrant notes evoke a sense of tartness and freshness, often with a hint of sweetness. They can add a vibrant, energizing quality to fragrances, making them well-suited for daytime or casual wear. Blackcurrant notes pair nicely with floral, woody, and citrus accords to create complex, balanced scents.
Use in perfumery
Blackcurrant is commonly used as a top or middle note in fragrances, adding a tart, juicy quality. It is often found in fruity, floral, and chypre-style perfumes, where it can provide a vibrant, almost wine-like character. Blackcurrant is a relatively common note in modern perfumery and is valued for its ability to add depth and complexity to scent compositions.
