The result is an opulent, multi-layered material prized across niche and fine fragrance alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOlfactory Character\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe profile opens with a vivid, tangy burst of green-fruity radiance — at once sparkling and wild. Beneath this lies a distinctive sulphurous-catty facet (characteristic of all genuine cassis bud absolutes), accompanied by spicy-woody undertones and an undercurrent of fresh, minty-green sulphur. As it settles on the strip, the composition transitions toward an earthy, woody sophistication with exceptional tenacity — remaining detectable on a smelling strip for well over 300 hours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Data\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBotanical Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cem\u003eRibes nigrum\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eINCI Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e RIBES NIGRUM (BLACK CURRANT) BUD EXTRACT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCAS Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 97676-19-2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAlso Known As:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cassis Bud Absolute\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Origin:\u003c\/strong\u003e France (Burgundy)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtraction Method:\u003c\/strong\u003e Solvent extraction of blackcurrant buds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlant Part Used:\u003c\/strong\u003e Buds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAppearance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dark Brown\/Green viscous liquid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOdour Family:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fruity \/ Green\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNote Classification:\u003c\/strong\u003e Base Note\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIFRA 51 Limit:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.4% in finished product (Category 4)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSuggested Use Level:\u003c\/strong\u003e Typically below 1% of concentrate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePerfumery Applications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEmploy this material in trace quantities as a powerful modifier. Its celebrated ability to elevate heavy white florals — preventing them from tipping into indolic excess — makes it indispensable in jasmine, tuberose, and gardenia constructions. Used sparingly in citrus colognes, it contributes sparkling, naturalistic freshness that bridges top notes into the heart. Pairing with galbanum or violet leaf amplifies green facets, whilst woody bases such as sandalwood or vetiver anchor its fruity warmth. This material functions as an exalting agent across multiple olfactory families, acting as a connector between green, fruity, and woody accords.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePackaging\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1ml sample supplied in clear flint glass. 5ml, 10ml and 30ml sizes supplied in amber glass.
