Tomato (Natural)

The smell of tomato leaves growing on a sunny day in the greenhouse is one of my favourite smells. I always wanted to access this note in perfumery, however after trying various raw materials which were meant to have a tomato leaf note I was left disappointed. I then discovered this beautiful Robertet base. While it's not a perfect recreation, it does capture the essence of the real tomato leaf smell, and its the best I've smelled by a long shot. It is out of my passion for this raw material that I decided to hunt down a small quantity to stock.
