What it smells like

Mate presents a distinctive earthy green scent with herbal tea-like qualities. Derived from the leaves of Ilex paraguariensis, this South American infusion offers a robust aroma like freshly cut grass with subtle smoky and woody undertones.

How it's used in perfumery

In perfumery, mate creates natural green accords that add depth and authenticity to herbal compositions. It pairs well with citrus, mint, and woody notes, particularly in fresh, masculine fragrances seeking an organic character.

Fun fact

The traditional drink of gauchos in South America, mate contains caffeine and was historically used as a stimulant.
