About Basil

Ocimum basilicum yields a steam-distilled leaf oil that reads as cleaner and sharper than the culinary herb, with a peppery green character. Basil anchors classic masculine fougères like Yves Saint Laurent Jazz and modern launches like Comme des Garçons Series 2 Red: Sequoia. It pairs especially well with bergamot at the opening and with vetiver or oakmoss at the base.
