What characterizes herbal fragrance notes?
Herbal scents are often described as green, clear, natural, spicy, fresh, or aromatic. They are less sweet than floral and fruity fragrance notes and less heavy than woody or warm fragrance families.
They are particularly exciting when fresh notes such as mint or eucalyptus are combined with rosemary, lavender, citrus, wood, or soft spices.
