Pepper

About Pepper

Scent Profile

Pepper is more than heat. It can smell dry, sparkling, slightly metallic, and finely textured. Black pepper feels sharper and drier, while pink pepper can add a rosy red-berry brightness.

Use in Perfumery

It is often used from top to heart notes to give movement to citrus, rose, incense, vetiver, cedar, and amber structures. In small amounts it sharpens a fragrance without making it heavy.

Did You Know?

Pepper notes can feel warm or cool depending on the formula. Their fine vibration works especially well with citrus peel and fizzy accords, making freshness feel more three-dimensional.
