Smells of: juicy blackcurrant
Role: fruity base

Blackcurrant Base opens with a bright, juicy, and slightly tart berry note that captures the essence of fresh blackcurrants. As it develops, the sweetness becomes more rounded and smooth, with a subtle green undertone that adds complexity without overpowering. This base is excellent for enhancing fruity accords, providing a rich, full-bodied character that can elevate both floral and gourmand compositions. It works well with citrus notes to create a vibrant top, or with vanilla and woods for a deeper, more sophisticated finish. Typically used at a dose of 0.010% to 0.41%, it often sits around 0.070% in formulas, making it a versatile choice for a variety of applications.
