Indeed many perfumes use the fresh, herbaceous, aniseed-like scent of Basil (O. basilicum) as a top or middle note. Most common it is found in Fougere formulations. The fragrance Brut by Faberge is an example of a modern Fougere. Fougere is a French word referring to the english Fern, Dryopterix filix-mas.
