What it smells like

Sesame evokes a warm, comforting scent reminiscent of toasted seed in bread. Its earthy, nutty aroma carries soft, creamy undertones that feel grounded and slightly sweet. Perfumers use it to add depth and a subtle gourmand warmth, often as a base note that anchors spicy or floral accords, creating a comforting, almost edible quality.

Sesame is listed in 7 perfumes in this directory. It is used across the heart and top positions rather than in one fixed place. It is most often paired with amber, bergamot and vanilla.
