Product Overview

Pink Peppercorn essential oil – similar to, more subdued in scent, and with brighter top notes than that of Black Pepper essential oil – has an aroma that is fresh, very intense, diffusive, dry, warm, and sweet-spicy with a faint floral note, a dry woody, slightly smoky undertone, and back notes resembling Angelica and Juniper. It is a popular middle to top note in natural perfumery for its refreshingly feminine, floral and exotic qualities.

Schinus molle, a fast-growing, drought-resistant evergreen shade tree, is native to the Andes Mountains of Peru and belongs to the cashew family. Referred to as the Brazilian or Peruvian Pepper, Mastic or false pepper, it is also sometimes called the California Pepper, but it is not native. Spanish colonials distributed the trees by seed into North America where they proved particularly well suited to California and the desert Southwest and became prominent during colonial times.[1] Today, with renewed interest in rainforest botanicals, Pink Peppercorn has its place among thousands of newly researched plants with worldwide usage. The invigorating and comforting aroma is useful in warming massage blends, chest rubs, and topical preparations.

Beautiful

Rating

This has such a wonderful fruity and floral scent that doesn't resemble black pepper at all. It's important to point out that Schinus molle and Piper nigrum are unrelated.

True to name

Rating

Comparing it to pink peppercorn from cooking, it is a true representation. Some of the same strong, peppery aroma as black pepper, but more delicate and with a floral note.

Review by M. 7/8/2014

Has character.

Rating

The actual pepper note is subdued here, with a prominent, borderline citric (think bergamot) juniper note at the fore. I'd agree that there's a hint of wood as well. All in all very interesting.

Review by Brockton 6/28/2013

A delicate spice.

Rating

Dry and pungent, but less bold than Black Pepper, which I'd only had before. This a little woody, and when I smelled it I felt it at the back of my throat. Its great for adding a bit of spice without being overpowering. It blends well with lighter, delicate oils like florals and citrus.
