If it is mentioned that there is pink pepper in the top notes of a perfume, it refers to a flavor that is similar to the fruity and sour scent of passion fruit. And then the real use of pink pepper is in the middle and the end notes. Because pink pepper doesn't actually have a peppery flavor, but why is it called pepper?
It's because the fruity acidity of its fruits and seeds evaporates when they are dried, and after being distilled to extract the essential oil, the flavor of the oil is very close to that of pepper oil, with only a very faint fruity acidity top note, similar to that of frankincense.
Pepper essential oil and spice pepper itself is not the same flavor. Because the essential oil has been distilled it has lost much of its pungency and has become a mild, dry, woody scent with a slight fruity top note.
Whether it is pink pepper or pepper's essential oil, it can provide a perfume similar to sandalwood, but not sandalwood fragrant, but more than sandalwood green woody fragrance, and stay very long lasting, the function is also very close to sandalwood, but because of sandalwood's flavor of the public is too familiar with the flavor of sandalwood, it is very easy to tune out the more cheesy scent. So the perfumer very much like pink pepper, taking into account the use of sandalwood fixed incense, but also afraid of taste is very vulgar, will use pink pepper.
Like Gucci, Chanel such perfume brands, women's perfume, pink pepper is almost essential. Even if you personally smell the essential oil of pink pepper, you will vaguely feel that is smelling the smell of Chanel or Gucci's women's perfume.
Visible pink pepper in these two brands is simply the soul of the existence of the general, even if the goods of the fragrance table does not say that there is pink pepper, but if you once you sniff out the inside of a very similar to sandalwood, but lighter than sandalwood, mild, slightly astringent woody fragrance, that is the implied pink pepper.
