Sandalwood, Floral

Olfactive description

Florsantol offers a clear, milky sandalwood note, distinguished by its sweetness and floral rosy undertones. This ingredient is highly appreciated by perfumers for its ability to create a smooth, ambery effect.

Perfumery usage

This ingredient is highly effective for fine-tuning perfumes, giving a natural aspect to any composition. Additionally, it serves as an excellent fixative and can enhance a floral sandalwood effect in fragrances.

Upcycling description

dsm-firmenich uses the upcycled Turpentine extracted from the paper industry, often those that use softwood to manufacture cardboard. Derived originally from softwoods, this turpentine is valorized through a fractionation process in which we retrieve alpha and beta pinene, the two main molecules obtained from fractionated turpentine.

Process

Chemical synthesis corresponds to the construction of complex chemical compounds from simpler ones.
Our R&D follows the principles of Green chemistry whenever possible.

History

Sandalwood notes are essential in perfumery due to their powerful, long-lasting character. To offer an alternative to natural resources, dsm-firmenich scientists have developed a range of more affordable, sustainable, and high-performance offerings.
