What Is Caraway?
Caraway is the seed of Carum carvi, the spice that gives rye bread its flavour. In perfume it smells warm and slightly sweet, with an anise-like, almost minty edge that sits somewhere between a kitchen spice and a fresh herb. Perfumers use it in small doses to give a heart a dry, aromatic lift without the heat of pepper or the sweetness of cinnamon.
