Perfumer's Notes

Anise essential oil is produced from anise seeds, the same seed that gives licorice its distinctive scent. Anethole, the main component in the essential oil, is also found in fennel and star anise. Anise is a polarizing ingredient due to it's unique impact in a fragrance — most people love it or hate it. Use it to add an aromatic, spicy note to your fragrance.
