Blackcurrant bud in perfumery
The fruit of the blackcurrant bush, grown in Burgundy, France, is often added to liqueurs and aperitifs. But it's the bud - unassuming, with a delicate pink color - that has found its use in the perfume industry. Green-fruit with a hint of liqueur, blackcurrant absolute is a high-quality ingredient used by perfumers. It allows for one of the most noble natural fruit aromas. Learn more about blackcurrant buds from various perspectives: botany, history, art and gastronomy to agriculture and chemistry. Of course, we cannot forget about perfumes and their creators.
