Rose, Muguet

Olfactive description

Its primary effect is distinctly rosy accompanied by a pronounced green geranium note that reminds of lily of the valley. Additionally, it carries subtle undertones of fruity honey and tropical fruits.

Perfumery usage

Effective even at low levels, it can serve as a substitute for other rose alcohols due to its soft, flowery notes. It enhances flower accords and offers exceptional longevity, being more enduring and persistent than Phenylethyl Alcohol.

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

dsm-firmenich’s palette continues to be enriched with new floral molecules. In recent decades, their R&D program has introduced an unrivalled collection of fresh and transparent muguet notes translated into a creative approach, BEYOND MUGUET.
