Absinthe is a bold and aromatic perfume note inspired by the infamous green liquor, traditionally crafted from wormwood (Artemisia absinthium), anise, fennel, and other fragrant herbs. Its scent is unmistakable—bitter-green, sharply herbal, and sweetly spiced with licorice-like freshness.

Often used to add a cool, green bitterness or mysterious edge to a fragrance, Absinthe combines medicinal sharpness with woody-earthy undertones, making it a favorite in daring, avant-garde perfumery. You’ll find it enhanced by vetiver, guaiac wood, cedar, or even leather and balsam to deepen its character.

💡 Why it matters: Absinthe adds intensity and an herbal twist to perfume compositions—perfect for bold, edgy, and unconventional scents.
