Notes
Cayenne pepper
What does this note smell like?
A dry, red-spice chilli image, suggesting a sharper edge against citrus, herbs and softer flowers. Cayenne belongs to Capsicum chilli peppers, distinct from the Piper nigrum peppercorn reference. In the catalogue’s Luxury and Nostalgia opening, Cayenne is listed separately from black and pink pepper. This explains the named contrast, not a measured burning sensation, a dose of capsaicin or proof of a chilli extract in the perfume.
