    This classic blackcurrant base from Firmenich is so ubiquitous you'll recognise it immediately upon smelling even if you've never purchased it before. It features in an overdose in Un Jardin Sur Le Nil by Jean-Claude Ellena for Hermès where it forms part of his green mango accord, and is found in traces in virtually every modern department store fragrance.

    When you need blackcurrant, this is the base you should turn to. Use it in amounts up to 0.1% to add nuance, radiance and a light fruity connotation to the opening of your fragrance, or in higher amounts for a distinctly blackcurrant note. 

    And don't be fooled by the name, Cassis Base 345B is also floral (particularly in the rose direction), green and minty. The versatility of this base cannot be overstated.

    Fraterworks® is strictly a reseller of this product and is neither an agent nor official distributor for Firmenich.

    IFRA 51: No restriction for category 4
    Appearance: Colourless liquid
    Longevity: Lasts > 350 hours on a smelling strip.

    General Information

    Like most suppliers and makers of quality raw materials for fragrances, we do not filter many of our products. This ensures that no odiferous matter is lost prior to use but can result in the appearance of small particles or slight clouding.

    All alcoholic fragrances should be macerated for up to a month and then chilled in a moderate freezer overnight before being filtered fine. This will remove all cloudiness or detritus and is the industry norm.

    IFRA Standards

    Permitted amounts in finished product:

    IFRA 51: 100%
    IFRA 49: 100%

    These are derived from calculated concentrations which do not replace chromatographic quantification on individual lots. Disclaimer...

    For Trade Use Only

    Our products are intended as building blocks in the perfume creation process; they are not to be applied to the skin undiluted.

    Apparently indispensable!

    Once I used it in a formula— a teensy amount (0.01% in a 20% EDP), I can’t imagine doing without it. It makes sense that this base features in Jean Claude Ellena’s tight organ. The lift and smoothness it adds to the top when dosed very very carefully (to keep it from registering as blackcurrant)) make it a piece of utter functional magic.
