Turmeric

Turmeric is a rhizome of the ginger family, and its oil, rich in turmerones, smells warm, earthy and woody, with a gingery sharpness and a dry, peppery bitterness. Curcumin, the pigment that turns curries yellow, contributes nothing to the smell, and in perfume the spice appears only sparingly, where its earthiness grounds spicy and woody accords.

How this is calculated

Each perfume counts once, even if a note appears at multiple pyramid levels. Percentages use the documented sample in each section, not the entire catalog. Associations can overlap and do not add up to 100%.

Rankings require at least 10 perfumes with relevant data; an association must occur in at least 3. Only the most frequent associations are shown.
