Technical Descriptors Orris, Powdery Olfactive description
Orris, violet, powdery, soft and woody.
Perfumery usageVery useful to enrich the floral and natural character of orris, violet and some fruity accords. It enhances the volume and the diffusion of fragrances. Thanks to its strength and good stability, it is convenient for many applications.
ProcessChemical synthesis corresponds to the construction of complex chemical compounds from simpler ones.
Our R&D follows the principles of Green chemistry whenever possible.
Irones (alpha, beta, gamma) are the olfactive constituent of orris extract. IRONE ALPHA is more floral and less earthy than IRONE BETA.
IRONE ALPHA exists in two isomers: cis-alpha (best olfactive isomer) and trans-alpha.
