Pink Pepper SFE (Firmenich)

Within the spicy olfactive family, this material offers a uniquely vibrant and multifaceted character. Its profile opens with a fresh, explosive burst of peppery spice, elegantly fused with bright, terpenic citrus facets and a subtle green nuance. Obtained through supercritical fluid extraction from the berries of the *Schinus terebinthifolius* tree, the resulting Pink Pepper SFE (Firmenich) captures an exceptionally true-to-nature aroma. This modern extraction method preserves the most delicate aromatic compounds, leading to a sophisticated dry down with soft woody, resinous, and even slightly powdery undertones, avoiding the harshness of other spice extracts.

Valued for its diffusive and sparkling effect, this extract provides lift and contemporary sophistication to a wide range of fragrance creations. It is particularly effective in enhancing citrus top notes, adding an innovative twist to floral bouquets, and bridging spicy hearts with ambery or woody bases. The pink peppercorn CO2 extract pairs exceptionally well with ingredients like grapefruit, vetiver, rose, and incense, creating a dynamic and textured accord. Typically utilized as a top to middle note, its recommended dosage in a fragrance concentrate can range up to 2%, allowing it to impart its signature effervescence without overpowering the composition.
