Sesame

Sesame is a small seed with a nutty, slightly sweet aroma and flavor. It is derived from the sesame plant, which is cultivated for its edible seeds. Sesame seeds come in a variety of colors, including white, black, and brown, and are prized for their high oil content and use in many cuisines around the world.

Fragrances featuring sesame tend to evoke a sense of comfort, warmth, and familiarity. The nutty, slightly sweet scent can be grounding and soothing, making it a good choice for everyday wear or relaxing moments. Sesame-based fragrances can also add a touch of exotic allure, particularly when combined with spicy or floral notes.

Sesame is commonly used as a base note in perfumes, providing a warm, nutty, and slightly sweet aroma. It is often paired with other woody, spicy, or floral notes to create a well-rounded, comforting fragrance. Sesame is particularly prevalent in Middle Eastern and Asian-inspired fragrances.
