What it smells like

Fennel offers a sweet, anisic spice with a pronounced herbal and green bite. It smells like licorice with subtle earthiness and a hint of warmth that can become slightly woody as it develops. The note feels fresh yet complex, balancing sweetness and green aroma. Perfumers use it in heart or top notes to inject a spicy-anisic lift into fougère and oriental blends.

Fennel is listed in 11 perfumes in this directory. It is used across the top and heart positions rather than in one fixed place. It is most often paired with lavender, bergamot, musk and oakmoss.
