Chestnut

Chestnut is a deciduous tree in the beechfamilie and occurs naturally in Europe, Asia and North America. The chestnut with its oblong leaves and extremely prickly seed pods bears nutty berry fruits that are edible and should not be confused with horse chestnut tree that is common in Scandinavia and is toxic in large quantities. 

Chestnuts are used in cooking, usually roasted, but also as a puree in desserts and baking.

In perfumes the chestnut provides a soft, sweet mellow aroma.
