Coriander

About

Coriander seed offers a bright, warm spice aroma—lemony-citrus top facets with a sweet, nutty, slightly woody and peppery heart, sometimes carrying a fresh green, herbal or soapy whisper reminiscent of the leaves. In perfumery it’s used in top-to-heart positions to add sparkling, aromatic lift to colognes, fougères, chypres and woody-spicy compositions, where it bridges citrus and spice and complements lavender, bergamot, vetiver and woods to lend lively, savory-sweet complexity.
