Pink pepper, also called pink peppercorn, does not belong to the pepper family despite its name. In French, it is called baie rose (bei rōzu/be rōzu) or poivre rose (powaburu rōzu).
Unlike black pepper, the small red berries are not hot; they have fresh, herbal top notes (in Japanese) and a rose (in Japanese)-like nuance. Among spices, pink pepper is one of the cold spices used to create fresh fragrances.
The first perfume in the world to use pink pepper (as a clearly recognizable note (in Japanese)) was Pleasures (Estée Lauder, 1995, Alberto Morillas).
Pink pepper adds a modern touch to perfume and can express a surprising freshness in fragrances for any audience. It also has the ability to lift certain base notes (in Japanese) so that they can be smelled in the top notes.

What Does It Smell Like in Perfume?
Pink pepper materials include a natural extract obtained from the berries of Schinus terebinthifolius using supercritical CO₂. Sparkling citrus and juicy green notes appear first, gradually giving way to a woody scent reminiscent of pine and resin: a material that combines brightness with depth. Spicy and refreshing in a lemon-like way, it brings lively stimulation and dimension to perfume. It is also botanically distinct from black pepper of the genus Piper.
