Grass

About

Grass is a crisp, dewy green note that smells of freshly cut lawns and crushed stems, with cool sappy facets, a hint of cucumber or apple peel, and a soft earthy, hay-like whisper that evokes spring fields and morning light. In perfumery it is a volatile top-to-heart accent—often recreated with cis-3-hexenol, cis-3-hexenyl acetate, and hexanal, shaded by violet leaf or galbanum—used to lend naturalistic freshness and “cut-stem” realism to citrus, floral, fougère, and ozonic styles; overdosed, it can feel sharp or metallic.
