Olive

Olive brings a green, slightly bitter, and distinctively Mediterranean quality to perfumery that evokes sun-baked groves and the ancient landscapes of the Mediterranean basin. In fragrance, olive captures the scent of the fruit and its oil — a smooth, green, slightly fatty aroma with mineral and earthy facets that feels grounded and authentic.

It is not a common fragrance note, which makes it all the more interesting when you encounter it. Olive adds a naturalistic, Mediterranean character to compositions.

It pairs beautifully with citrus for a complete Mediterranean impression, with aromatic herbs for a rustic garden feel, with fig for a warm summer day, with woods for earthy depth, and with sea salt for a coastal atmosphere. You will find olive in several niche fragrances that celebrate Mediterranean landscapes.
