Blackcurrant Absolute

Blackcurrant absolute is an intensely aromatic and complex fragrance material derived from the buds and leaves of the blackcurrant plant (Ribes nigrum). It has a rich, sweet-tart, and slightly jammy scent with nuances of black tea, cassis, and dark berries.

Fragrances featuring blackcurrant absolute evoke a sense of lush, dark sophistication. The scent can be both invigorating and comforting, making it suitable for a range of occasions from casual daytime wear to more formal evening events. The complex, almost jammy quality of blackcurrant lends itself well to cooler weather and autumn/winter seasons.

Blackcurrant absolute is commonly used as a heart or base note in perfumes, adding depth, complexity, and a distinctive fruity-floral character. It pairs well with other dark berry notes, woody accords, and spices like clove or cinnamon. Blackcurrant is a popular ingredient in many niche and high-end fragrances.
