Celery is found in our salads and grows in our vegetable gardens, but it is also a raw material used in perfumery. It is an herbaceous plant, cultivated in France, India and the United States for its roots and leaves. Its fresh and acidulous taste flavors many culinary preparations. Its seeds are also used to make celery salt. Perfumers use celery seeds, previously dried and crushed, for steam distillation. This method produces an essence with a spicy and warm fragrance. Its scent is powerful, with hints of tobacco and evokes the roundness of dried figs. This raw material brings depth to the eau de parfum alfred kafé, thanks to its warm and aromatic nuances.
