Perfumes with Herbal Notes

Herbal notes describe the green, dry, slightly camphorous freshness of aromatic herbs such as sage, rosemary, thyme and mint; they are an impression built from several materials, not one.

The effect is usually created from a mix of herb oils and green synthetic molecules. Depending on the herbs involved it can feel medicinal, spicy or leafy, and it gives a composition a natural, clean character. Herbal notes sit mostly in the heart of a fragrance and often in the opening. They pair with lavender, citrus, green tea, vetiver, cedar, musks and florals.

Herbal Notes appears in 914 perfumes in the Fisfis catalogue and is used mostly as a heart note.
