Pink Pepper.
Dry, rosy spice with a light prickle. Warm rather than hot.
Our read on the material, not a measurement.
What it smells like.
Pink pepper is peppery without the heat of black pepper. It is dry, slightly rosy and faintly fruity, and what it mostly does is prickle. On skin it reads as sparkle at the top of a fragrance rather than as spice you could name.
Perfumers use it to stop a floral from feeling old-fashioned and to give a citrus opening something to hold on to. It is a supporting material by nature. If you want the blend to read as spicy, cinnamon or clove will do it; pink pepper will only hint.
