Basil leaves are highly fragrant and offer distinct aromas of anise, clove, citrus, cinnamon, and camphor due to a rich content of essential oils. The leaves can be harvested at multiple maturity stages, bearing different flavours with each variety, and generally have an herbal, sweet, and nutty taste with fresh licorice nuances.
