Coriander, known as koendoro in Japanese, is an annual plant in the carrot family, Apiaceae. It is called phak chi in Thai and xiangcai in Chinese. In perfumery, the fruits and the whole flowering plant are used for their herbal, woody, spicy aroma, enriching the top notes (in Japanese) and middle notes (in Japanese).
What Does It Smell Like in Perfume?
The essential oil obtained by steam-distilling coriander seeds is a natural fragrance material rich in linalool. Unlike the intensely green smell associated with cilantro leaves, it reveals bright floral notes layered with hints of citrus and soft amber. In perfume, it helps floral notes expand with transparency and can add a rosewood-like smoothness to woody compositions. Because the seed oil consists of many constituents, it is a different material both from the single molecule linalool and from an accord that recreates the scent of the leaves.
