Blackcurrant
Blackcurrant presents a complex olfactory profile, simultaneously tart, juicy, green, and subtly animalic. The initial impression is often a burst of sharp, tangy fruitiness, reminiscent of ripe berries just plucked from the bush. This is quickly followed by a distinct green, leafy, and slightly woody undertone, particularly prominent in the 'cassis bud' absolute. A unique, sometimes challenging facet is a faint, sulfurous note often described as 'cat-pee' or 'balsamic,' which adds depth and a touch of wildness. The texture feels vibrant and effervescent, almost sparkling. Its intensity can range from a bright, airy top note to a richer, more persistent heart note. Projection is typically moderate to strong initially, settling into a noticeable presence. Longevity is fair, often bridging the top and heart phases of a composition.
