About

Fresh, leafy green notes

Scent Profile

Green notes evoke the aroma of freshly cut grass, crushed leaves, and stems, often with a crisp, dewy, and slightly bitter character. They can include nuances of galbanum, violet leaf, or tomato leaf, and may evolve to reveal subtle earthy or vegetal undertones. The impression is vibrant and naturalistic, imparting a sense of outdoors freshness.

Origin

Green notes are typically created using both natural extracts such as galbanum resin, violet leaf absolute, or mint, and synthetic molecules like cis-3-hexenol, which replicates the scent of cut grass. These materials are sourced from plants or synthesized in laboratories to achieve a consistent and stable green effect.

Usage in Perfumery

Perfumers use green notes primarily in the top or heart of a composition to add freshness, lift, and a naturalistic facet. They blend well with florals, citrus, woods, and herbal notes, and are common in chypre, fougère, and modern fresh fragrances. Green notes can also temper sweetness or add complexity to floral and woody accords.
