In foods, anise is used as a flavoring agent. It has a sweet, aromatic taste that resembles the taste of black licorice.

It is commonly used in alcohols and liqueurs, such as anisette and ouzo. Anise is also used in dairy products, gelatins, meats, candies, and breath fresheners.
In manufacturing, anise is often used as a fragrance in soap, creams, perfumes, and sachets.

Anisaldehyde, trans-anethole, safrole and acetoanisole.

It is originally from Middle East.
