Belladona

About

Belladonna (deadly nightshade) in perfumery is a fantasy accord rather than a natural extract, imagined as dark and velvety with inky-green, bitter-herbal facets, shadowy florals, and black-cherry or plum nuances touched by a faint medicinal bite. It evokes nocturnal mystery and gothic romance—dangerous yet hypnotic—and is used to add drama and depth to moody florals, chypres, and amber-wood compositions, often paired with berries, incense, leather, or patchouli for a shadowed, enchanted-forest effect.
