Understanding the material
IFF identifies buds rather than harvested berries for its Burgundy blackcurrant absolute. Its description combines juicy fruit with green and sulfurous facets. The plant part explains why a natural perfumery material may not resemble jam or fruit juice. A blackcurrant note in a finished perfume can also be constructed, so the name alone does not identify this absolute.
Compare blackcurrant bud with a softer fruity perfume and a green fragrance. Notice whether the berry association comes with a leafy or sharper edge.
