cassis

38 perfumes

Derived from the blackcurrant bud (Ribes nigrum), cassis offers a vibrant, tart, and green-fruity profile with a distinctively sulfurous, catty nuance. Often utilized as a top or heart note, it provides an immediate, sparkling lift to floral bouquets. In the Gulf market, cassis is increasingly favored for its ability to cut through the density of heavy ouds and ambers, adding a modern, sophisticated brightness that balances the traditional richness of Taif rose and precious woods with refreshing, acidic complexity.
