Black Currant Element fragrance oil distills the bold, juicy essence of cassis (aka black currants) into a single note. This scent brings a vibrant, fruity character to blends, adding depth and brightness that perfectly complements modern, dynamic fragrances.

We’ve found that the cold throw of this fragrance in wax errs on the side of sweetness, while the black currant’s signature tartness emerges beautifully in finished products.

This scent will enhance your candle, soap, lotion, reed diffuser, and room spray creations.

This fragrance oil is infused with natural essential oils.

Fragrance Family: Fruity

Black Currant Element pairs best with fragrances in the Fruity, Aromatic, Green, and Spicy fragrance families, but is also delicious in gourmand pairings.

Black Currant Element recommended blends:

Suggested colors: Dark Purple, Lilac, Dusty Violet

BlendingElement fragrances can be used:

  • On their own for single-note products
