EcoIngredient Compass®
Floral, Jasmine, Citrus
An elegant, transparent floral, jasmine note with citrus freshness. HEDIONE® develops a beautiful natural smoothness and radiance in a wide range of perfume types.
HEDIONE® exalts floralcy in a perfume. It does not necessarily increase strength, but does bestow presence, noticeability, and diffusion. Used at a concentration of between 2 and 15%, but can be used at levels of 35% and above.
Chemical synthesis corresponds to the construction of complex chemical compounds from simpler ones.
Our R&D follows the principles of Green chemistry whenever possible.
The HEDIONE® family began with dsm-firmenich's discovery of the molecule HEDIONE® in 1958, as part of the methyl jasmonate synthesis. Further ingredients continue to be developed to meet additional specific technical needs, such as a heightened stability or strength.
HEDIONE® brings to mind the old adage, "He who wishes to be heard will always whisper".
