Smells of: fresh, green, herbaceous
Role: top note, freshener

Viridine opens with a fresh, green, slightly herbaceous scent that has a crisp, almost minty quality. As it develops, it reveals a subtle warmth and a hint of earthiness, which adds complexity without overwhelming the composition. This material is effective in enhancing the freshness of floral and green accords, providing a natural lift that can brighten up heavier notes. It works well in both masculine and feminine fragrances, often used to balance sweeter elements. Pair it with citrus notes for a vibrant opening or with woody bases to create depth. Typical usage is between 0.028% to 0.55%, with an average around 0.185%.
