Blackcurrant Bud
Friske, mentolagtige facetter mingler med syrlige - dog søde - frugtige toner i en sart balance af saftig syre. Solbærknopnoten koster en formue, og er derfor eksklusiv for finparfumeri. Næser må udvise forsigtighed: solbærnoten har en animalsk kant, der er blevet sammenlignet med kattetis. Men når den blandes med ekspertise, er dens duft dristig, unik og guddommeligt aromatisk.
Solbærknopper er en favorit blandt avantgarde-parfumører, der søger at give en parfume en frisk, lidt provokerende dimension. Den tilfører en kompleks duft en næsten elektrisk, kølig dybde - en tone, der hverken er helt frugtig eller helt grøn, men noget unikt og uforglemmeligt midt imellem.
Frugtig, mentolagtig, svovlagtig.

Historie
In 1841, a liquor called crème de cassis made its first appearance in Dijon, France. Captivating its audience, the liquor infused Burgundy-grown blackcurrant fruits in a novel concoction. However, it wasn’t until 1960 that we saw this raw material take center stage in the world of fragrance. Even today, it’s a rather rare commodity to obtain, but mechanized cultivation allows for a wider harvest.
Produktion
A decadently fragrant plant, the blackcurrant bush is known for its particularly aromatic leaves that secrete an odorous essence through their glands. A lover of cold climates, blackcurrant bushes are found in chilly, damp regions like Scandinavia. However, the plant is also cultivated in several regions of France—most notably in Burgundy. New leaf buds are harvested early in the year and are carefully picked from cuttings. Their coveted absolute is obtained through extraction using volatile solvents.
