Herbal Notes

Herbal Notes typically refer to scents in perfumery or ambiance products that evoke the sensation of fresh, green, and aromatic characteristics reminiscent of herbs. These scents are often derived from plants such as rosemary, basil, mint, thyme, sage, and lavender. Each herb brings its own unique note, but generally, herbal scents share common traits of being crisp, earthy, invigorating, and somewhat medicinal or culinary in nature.

The scent profile of herbal notes can be described as:
- Fresh: Conveying a sense of clean, brisk, morning dew or freshly cut grass.
- Green: Evoking leafy, verdant scents that are natural and vibrant.
- Aromatic: Often spicy or tangy, these scents can be sharp and penetrating, stimulating the senses.
- Earthy: Providing a grounding, muddy quality that is rich and nurturing.

Herbal notes are often used in aromatherapy for their therapeutic properties, including stress relief and mental clarity. In perfumery, they are used to add depth and complexity to fragrances, often serving as a heart or top note that lifts and nuances the scent profile.
