By the editors · 2 min readBlackcurrant opens with a tart, jammy snap, its green edges slicing through the grapefruit’s pithy brightness while a cool rose petal note hovers just above the fruit. Within minutes the rosewood heart warms the accord, its faintly peppery timber fusing with mint’s chilled green blade to keep the composition crisp rather than jam-sweet; lily and freesia add watery transparency so the rose never turns plush. The fruit slowly oxidizes to a muted berry stain, letting the woody-rose tandem linger close to skin with a faint metallic glint from rosewood’s natural camphor trace. Projection stays polite, a handshake radius that lasts a workday, then folds into a laundered-cotton skin scent. Office-friendly spring through early fall; best when you want a rose that behaves like a crisp white shirt rather than a velvet gown.
