Understanding the material

Eden Botanicals describes a seed-derived CO₂ material with spicy, fruit-associated and woody facets. Caraway and cumin are different botanical references, even though their small ridged seeds can look similar in photographs. A material’s familiar food association does not predict the complete character of a finished fragrance.

A smelling observation

Compare caraway with cumin and coriander seed. Notice the contrast between fresh spice, powdery warmth and softer floral associations.
