Spicy, character notes
In perfumery, spices, like flowers, citrus and wood, are basic raw materials. The spicy notes are hot, warm, spicy, enveloping and fresh. Used both in the composition of men's perfumes and women's perfumes, the spicy notes give character, magnitude and relief to the fragrances. One can be tempted by a perfume with spicy notes if one wishes a wake worthy of a love potion.
Families with spicy notes
The palette of perfumers is rich in spicy essences. Spicy notes are found in almost all olfactory families. These spicy accords bring exotic accents to the composition and highlight the other raw materials: spicy hesperides, spicy ferns, spicy woodland, spicy woodland spiced leather, spicy floral, spicy orientals and spicy floral amber. In cooking as in perfumery, one distinguishes the hot spices from the so-called cold spices. Cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves are in the hot spice category, while cardamom, coriander and ginger are called cold spices. Hot spices bring sensuality to a fragrance. Hot scents are much appreciated during the winter season. Cold spices, such as cardamom and ginger, are very much in vogue. We appreciate the modern, fresh and spicy appearance that they give to the perfume. The cumin is a spice a little apart that brings an animal note to the composition.
