Pe l l Wal l – Ingred ien t s Cata logue – November 2015 Prices exclude shipping, which is a flat rate of £9.50 for up to 20Kg, or free if you spend over £300, within the UK only. There is no minimum order, but please note the quantities offered.

For other destinations I’ll quote depending on size and weight of order, but as an indication it’s about £17 for a package containing up to 10 x 100ml bottles to France, Germany etc. I will quote the cheapest courier charge I can – there’s no mark-up on P&P – note that Royal Mail won’t carry most perfumery materials, except in very small amounts by road, so are useless in most cases.

There are over 350 materials offered here now, all from stock I use myself in my own work and at the same quality I use. If you don’t see what you need, ask, I may be able to get hold of it for you.

Many materials listed here use familiar names that are trademarks of the major manufacturers (Helional, Vertenex, Hedione and so forth) – in the great majority of cases the material I’m selling is original material, manufactured by the trademark owner – in each case this is shown in the entry.

To order email [email protected] or visit www.PellWall.uk

Descriptions Each entry contains a short list of scent notes with occasionally other short commentary to assist those who may not have encountered the material previously to decide whether it is of interest: I recommend you make your own assessment of each and every perfumery material you use however.

After pricing and other basic details there are narative descriptions provided: these are intended to assit interested readers as well as potential purchasers to assess the uses and potential of the material in question.

Many of the descriptions contain quotations from the manufacturer of the product and in addition I have quoted fairly extensively from Arctander 1 and from Arcadi Boix Camps 2 – both independent writers and both highly experienced perfumers. Anything not identified as a quotation is my own opinion of the material in question and it’s uses, but I am grateful to many other sources and perfumers as well as the two expert authors named here.

1 Steffen Arctander : quotations are taken from Perfume and Flavor Chemicals published in 1969 and Perfume and Flavor Materials of Natural Origin published in 1961 2 Arcadi Boix Camps : quotations are taken from Perfumery: Techniques in Evolution, 2nd Edition published in 2009, but containing material written in 1978, 1985, and 1999 as well – where relevant the date of writing is noted with the quotations.

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £36 £55 £107 £420 Description and usage notes: An extremely fine macrocyclic musk of great diffusion and power, this a close analog of the musk that occurs naturally in Ambrette seed oil and one of the most effective. In traces it will enhance other ingredients and is especially effective used in combination with Exaltolide and Ethylene brassylate. Classic musk note with a subtle fruity backnote often likened to red-berries. Arctander says it is “is one of the finest fixatives among the distinguished group of those showing a synergistic and amplifying effect upon perfumes and flavors. At the same time it increases the diffusiveness of fragrances in which it is incorporated. Its fixative effect is easily recognized by the fact that solutions of 0.01% Ambrettolide (or even less) in slightly diluted alcohol show practically no odor of alcohol, only a faint, floral-musky, sweet and pleasant odor of the lactone. A. is particularly useful in fragrance types of delicately floral, mildly animal or Ambre-like type.“ Main Synonyms:



Ambrino l 95 (at 10% in e thano l) CAS No. 71832-76-3 Odour (decreasing): Ambergris, natural, musky, animalic, tobacco. Powerful and diffusive Solvent: Ethanol (denat) 10% Manufacturer (if known): IFF

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £12 £14 £25 £115 Description and usage notes: Ambrinol 95 is the highest purity form of ambrinol commercially available and offers perfumers a cruicial part of the odour of natural ambergris. A hugely powerful (and still expensive) material it is offered here at 10% in ethanol, but even then should be further diluted prior to use. IFF describe it like this: “Possesses the elegant tonalities of aged natural ambergris tincture. Tobacco, leathery nuances and the power of oceanic seaweed notes supported with a warm animalic, musky dry down“. Traces of Ambrinol 95 can be used in all perfume types to add naturalness, depth, complexity and texture; it can be particularly interesting in woody, oriental, Chypre and floral creations. A touch of Ambrinol 95 can transform a labdanum-based amber accord into a natural ambergris note. Writing in the 1960s Arctander had this to say about the potential of a material not yet part of the palette: “The title materials are bridly mentioned in this work because of their potential interest to the perfumer. “They are natural components of Ambregris, and they are considered of major importance to the olfactory properties of natural Ambregris and Ambregris tincture. Although the materials have been synthesized, and also obtained as isolates from natural Ambregris, they are not yet comnlercially available under the name Ambrinol. Closely related chemicals are made syntheically at lower cost, but not of the same attractive olfactory eflect ...When the title materials become commercially available at an attractive price, they will undoubtedly find their way into perfumery as part of Ambre bases, new perfume types, specialities etc.“ He was of course right and Ambrinols have been used in bases such as Ambergris Oliffac (an IFF product, recently discontinued) for many years.

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £9 £10 £17 £38 Description and usage notes: One of the essential components of almost every jasmine recreation, a lovely soft floral material with only a slight spice note. Fresher than the similar Hexyl cinnamaldehyde. Arctander has quite a bit to say about the material: “Very mild oily-herbaceous and somewhat floral odor, reminiscent of many types of natural flowers, but mostly of Jasmin, Gardenia and Tuberose. Introduces Jasmin-like floralness when accompanied by more volatile chemicals of floral character. Blends excellently and assists in fixation of the fragrance (ACA is quite tenacious) ... ACA is very susceptible to oxidation unless properly treated with an antioxidant (conventionally added by most manufacturers). Old or oxidized ACA has [an] objectionable, rancid-fatty odor. Lower grades of ACA may show by-odor of Benzaldehyde, Heptaldehyde or Amyl nonenal, sometimes called Di-heptenal. Concentration in perfumes may vary from 2 to 10%, in exceptional cases up to 30-35%.“ Main Synonyms: amyl cinnamal, alpha amyl cinnamadehyde, alpha amyl cinnamal

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £9 £10 £17 £36 Description and usage notes: Perhaps less familiar than Benzyl Salicylate but probably even more versatile, this can be used in most fragrance types as a blender as well as for its own particular character. Here is Arctander on the odour and usage: “Sweet herbaceous-green, slightly floral odor. Very tenacious, somewhat woody-earthy, sweet dryout notes. Refined qualities of this ester may show a marked difference in odor, particularly richer in sweetness and floral tones. … Extensively used in floral and non-floral perfume types: Very often in Carnation, Hyacinth, Orchid, Trefle, and almost inevitably in Fougere types. Its low cost and world-wide availability makes it one of the most important perfume chemicals.“ Main Synonyms: iso-Pentyl salicylate, iso-Pentyl-ortho-hydroxybenzoate, “Tresseine“, Trefle, Orchidee, Trefol, iso-Amyl salicylate

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £8 £8 £13 £42 Description and usage notes: Sweet, powdery, vanilla, hay-like but intensely sweet and floral, this is the classic hawthorn ingredient. Arctander gives some good indications of its useage: “Very widely used in perfumery, only restricted because of its poor stability in alkali and in the presence of Amines. Certain fragrance types may contain well over 10% of this aldehyde, while a few percent or less can introduce satisfactory effects in other types. It is an excellent companion to the sharper aldehydes, will round them off and reduce their pungency.“ Main Synonyms: Aubepine

A good fixative for rose and other floral notes that is also very helpful in hot applications like candles. Arctander describes it like this: “Used extensively in perfumes for sweet-woody-geranium-like notes in low-cost fragrances, soap perfumes, etc. Useful as a fixative. It has an extremely low vapor pressure at room temperature, and its effect upon the fragrance is only perceptible and apparent in mixtures with lower boiling items or at higher temperatures.“ Main Synonyms:

Must be used with caution though or it can easily ruin a blend. Main Synonyms:



Benzyl ace ta te CAS No. 140-11-4 Odour (decreasing): Sweet, floral, fruity, jasmine, fresh. Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known):

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £4 £6 £19 Description and usage notes: Very widely used and almost essential in jasmine and gardenia accords: should be in every perfumer's palette. Arctander tells us this: “Very extensively used in perfumery, from the lowest priced industrial odors to the most highly appreciated cosmetic fragrances, often constituting the main ingredient in a perfume oil. It is almost inevitably the largest component in Jasmin and Gardenia fragrances, and it enters in a multitude of other floral fragrance types in smaller proportions. Its poor tenacity is usually compensated for by proper blending with higher esters of Benzyl alcohol, and with suitable fixatives. In the industrial odors, the volatility of Benzyl-acetate is often only an advantage.“ Main Synonyms:

Benzyl ace tone CAS No. 2550-26-7 Odour (decreasing): Floral, balsamic, sweet, aromatic Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known):

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £9 £9 £16 £51 Description and usage notes: An interesting ingredient useful for adding depth and realism to recreations of oud and other incense types. Arctander has some other suggestions: “floral-green odor, fresher than that of Benzylacetate, more lasting. Stable in soap. Suggested for use in perfumes as a modifier for Benzylacetate, particularly in soap fragrances. Its somewhat sharper character can at times bean advantage for the more robust job of perfuming a soap.“ Main Synonyms:



Benzyl a l coho l CAS No. 100-51-6 Odour (decreasing): Floral-rose, phenolic, balsamic, mild and with only a very slight almond note Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known):

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £9 £9 £15 £44 Description and usage notes: Benzyl alcohol appears in many flower and herb GC and headspace analyses and appears to act as a natural fixative and blending agent in flower scents: it can be used in a similar way in fragrance creation. This is fragrance grade material of high purity: when benzyl alcohol develops a distinct almond note it is due to the formation of benzaldehyde - if this happens discard it and buy fresh. Main Synonyms:

Benzyl benzoate CAS No. 118-58-1 Odour (decreasing): mild, solvent, balsamic Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known):

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £9 £10 £17 £34 Description and usage notes: A useful perfumery solvent particularly helpful for nitro-musks, certain natural extracts and other very low-polarity ingredients that can be difficult to dissolve. Arctander suggests some wider uses: “A classic fixative-blender and solvent in perfumes. Also a modifier in heavier florals, Oriental type fragrances, etc., Tuberose, Yiang- Ylang, Lily, Gardenia, etc. Largely substituted by Benzyl salicylate when a faint odor is desirable. As a solvent for Nitromusks, Benzyl benzoate can not compete with Dlethyl phthalate in cost, and the practise of keeping Nitromusks in solution on the perfumers shelf is, in the author’s opinion, outdated.“ Main Synonyms:



Benzyl sa l i cy la te CAS No. 22418-66-2 Odour (decreasing): Sweet-floral, spicy, balsamic, slightly phenolic, typical salicylate character, excellent blending agent Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known):

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £9 £9 £15 £33 Description and usage notes: Very useful material particularly in conjunction with aldehydes where it acts to blend and soften them. Good in many fragrance types to give naturalness and smooth out the blend. Weak odour, but very good fixative, sweet-floral, spicy, balsamic, slightly phenolic, azalea, gillyflower, ylang ylang, narcissus. A widely used fine fragrance ingredient, essential for some early 20th Century classics, also useful as a solvent for some crystalline musks and as a UV stabiliser. Arctander starts by elucidating the difficulty of describing its odour: “Very faint, sweet-floral, slightly balsamic odor. This ester is, according to the judgment of some people (including perfumers) absolutely odorless, while others find it ’musky’ of odor. Trace impurities can greatly influence the odor of this high-boiling chemical. Widely used as a blender in perfumery, and generally as a mild, floral background with an effect not unlike that of Y1ang-Ylang (except for power and topnote). Excellent in all florals, Carnation, Wallflower in particular.“ Main Synonyms:

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £34 £51 £99 £395 Description and usage notes: From Givaudan: [Odor: Woody, Ambery, Olibanum. Use: Agarwood is a classical material used in perfumery. When this wood is infected by fungi, it develops dark streaks charged with an odouriferous oleoresin.

Arctander says it is “Widely used in perfume compositions, although generally at very low concentration (perceptible cflects well below 1% in the perfume oil). It forms part of the herbaceous theme in many New Mown Hay, Tobacco, Hyacinth, Hawthorne, Carnation, Meliolotus, etc. and supports floral notes in Gardenia Honeysuckle, Mimosa, Hyacinth and many others. It gives interesting effects in Pine Needle fragrances, in Amber bases and, in general, as an additive to Coumarin or Nonanolide“ .Comes as a solid or at 50% in IPM if you prefer, same price Main Synonyms: 1,4-dimethoxybenzene, para-dimethyl hydroquinone

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £15 £20 £37 £135 Description and usage notes: Can be used in perfumes only in the most extreme dilution to add realism to gourmand (particularly coffee, chocolate and similar), fruity and certain flower perfumes. Don't underestimate the power of this material: even small amounts can leave your perfume smelling of little more than boiled cabbage and raw onions, while a tiny amount can add creamy-warmth and diffusion. Arctander describes the smell like this: “Extremely diffusive, repulsive odor, reminiscent of wild Radish, sharp, green, Cabbage-like. Only in very high dilution it becomes bearable and almost acceptable, pleasant, vegetable-like.“ Main Synonyms: Dimethyl sufide, DMS, exact-S, methane thiomethane, 2-thiopropane

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £9 £9 £15 £39 Description and usage notes: An excellent material in masculine fragrance as well as for adding brightness to other fragrances. The odour is somewhere between linalool and dihydromyrcenol in character but with more sparkle than either. Description from Givaudan: “Odor: Lavender, Citrus, Fresh, Floral, Woody. Use: Dimetol has a fresh natural character, which is very useful in citrus, lavender, floral, woody and tobacco compositions. It can be used to great advantage for blending woody spicy accords with cologne notes. Its highly original and sparkling character explains its great success in fragrances designed for men. Highly stable, including in bleach.“ Main Synonyms: 2,6-dimethylheptan-2-ol, freesia heptanol

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £10 £11 £19 £63 Description and usage notes: This material melts at 28 Centigrade. Arctander suggests these uses: “… It is not confined exclusively to Geranium and Rose types, since Fougeres, New Mown Hay and Hyacinth, to mention a few, can benefit from this chemical. Like many other low-cost perfume chemicals, it is often an interesting tool in the hands of a skilled perfumer with audacity and imagination and an urge to use materials in an ‘unconventional’ way.“ Main Synonyms: diphenyl ether, Geranium crystals

Ebanol CAS No. 67801-20-1 Odour (decreasing): Sandalwood, woody, musk Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known): Givaudan

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £17 £22 £41 £105 Description and usage notes: Ebanol has a musky character in addition to the sandalwood and is perhaps four times stronger than natural sandalwood oil. It should be stored cool in well-sealed containers for no more than 18 months or diluted promptly in ethanol as it can develop off-odours otherwise. Description from Givaudan: ”Ebanol has a very rich, natural sandalwood odour. It is powerful and intense, bringing volume and elegance to woody accords and a diffusive sandalwood effect to compositions. Ebanol is highly substantive on all supports.” Main Synonyms: Sandal pentenol, (Z)-3-methyl-5-(2,2,3-trimethyl-1-cyclopent-3-enyl)pent-4-en-2-ol, matsunol, muscosandrol, mohanol, probanol

Elemi res ino id 10% in e thano l CAS No. 8023-89-0 Odour (decreasing): Fresh, terpenic, peppery, lemony, woody, balsam Solvent: Ethanol (denat) 10% Manufacturer (if known):

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £13 £16 £29 £101 Description and usage notes: Elemi Resinoid is prepared by extracting crude elemi (so called Elemi Gum, but more properly an oleoresin) with a volatile solvent, usually Acetone, and removing the solvent in vacuum after filtration. The resulting pale yellow semi-solid soon shows white masses of crystals separating in the soft, slowly solidifying resinoid. The high terpene content means that once disolved in ethanol filtration is required - hence the material offered here has had this preparation already completed - retaining the heart of the elemi in an easy to use format. Arctander gives this enthusiastic description of the uses of elemi resinoid: “This is a very interesting fixative for artificial bergamot, lemon, lime, etc., as well as for the various verbena compositions, e.g. eau de verveine bases and other cologne types. In lavender- colognes, fougeres, spicy colognes, etc., it simul- taneously introduces freshness and fixation. “ Main Synonyms: Canarium indicum, Canarium commune



Ethyl ace ta te CAS No. 141-78-6 Odour (decreasing): Ethereal, fruity-grape, sweet, rum-like Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known):

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £9 £9 £16 £53 Description and usage notes: One of the more powerful fruity esters typically used in very small amounts. Arctander describes the scent as “Pleasant, ethereal-fntity, Brandy-like odor, somewhat nauseating in high concentration.“ and suggests it is used “to make a topnote smell 'aged' or more rounded-alcoholic, or to give a ‘lift' to Citrus notes or other light notes, etc.“ Main Synonyms:

Ethyl ace toace ta te - New CAS No. 141-97-9 Odour (decreasing): Ethereal, fruity-apple, sweet, rum-like; much softer than the acetate Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known):

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £10 £11 £19 £55 Description and usage notes: One of the more accessible fruity esters with a much softer, easier to like odour than most. Arctander says of it “Occasionally used in perfume compositions, mainly to support ethereal, winey, brandy-like, fresh-citrusy and other light, non-floral top-notes. It has also been used to introduce an 'aged' note to alcohol“. Main Synonyms: diacetic ether, ethyl 3-oxobutanoate



Ethyl bu tyra te CAS No. 105-54-4 Odour (decreasing): Fruity-pineapple, banana, juicy fruit / tuti-fruity, cognac. Powerful Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known):

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £8 £8 £13 £35 Description and usage notes: Found in the odours of several fruits, distinctively pineapple in character, though it is present naturally in the scents of many other fruits too, including grapefruit, mango, strawberry and orange juice (but it is not oil). It is extremely diffusive and very powerful – becoming rather vomit-like when over-dosed – but capable of adding freshness and lift to floral and oriental fragrances. Try adding a small amount of this material to a fragrance containing Fructalate to make a simple pineapple accord or add some to jasmine to give it a fresher, sharper feeling. Arctander suggests this: “This ester has occasionally been used in minute traces in perfume compositions for its warm-fruity efl’ect in Rose and other floral bases. lt is also used as a masking agent for industrial fragrances.“ Main Synonyms:

Ethyl l ina loo l CAS No. 10339-55-6 Odour (decreasing): Fresh, floral, herbal-coriander, rosewood, wet, green, bergamot, lavender Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known): Givaudan

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £12 £14 £25 £69 Description and usage notes: softer, finer and less agresic than linalool. Arctander seems quite enthusiastic: “This alcohol has been suggested for use in perfume compositions as a modifier for LinaIool with certain advantages over that marerial. Ethyl Iinalool has a somewhat slower rate of evaporation and is easier to work with, needs only normal fixation, and blends with more materials. It introduces softer, more floral-woody, less citrusy notes, according to the composition in which it is used. Along with Ethyl Iinalyl acetate, it forms a pleasant Bergamot-type background note even in soap perfumes, a combination which is more stable than Bergamot oil itself. The alcohol is also an interesting item in Muguet, Lilac, Lily, Appleblossom, etc. as well as in fantasy creations.“ Main Synonyms: Homolinalool



Ethyl l ina ly l ace ta te CAS No. 61931-80-4 Odour (decreasing): Sweet. floral. refreshing and rather light odor with a trace of a fruity note. Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known): Givaudan

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £8 £8 £13 £39 Description and usage notes: A more refined alternative to the ubiquitous Linalyl Acetate. Description from Givaudan: ”Softer, more floral, more bergamot and less lavender than Linalyl Acetate. It has an elegant, refreshing effect in floral bouquets.” Arctander speaks highly of this material: “This ester is being used on an increasing scale in perfumery, and seems not only to substitute Linalyl acetate in many cases, but it expands the field of usage of that ester to areas hitherto beyond the effective limits of Linalyl acetate. The subject ester has greater stability richer odor and better tenacity. It improves the 'Bergamot-effect' of a composition where Linalyl acetate has previously been used. It also blends excellently with the conventional perfume and soap perfume materials with almost no limits of application.“ Main Synonyms: Homo Iinalylacetate.

Ethyl mal to l CAS No. 4940-11-8 Odour (decreasing): Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known):

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £12 £14 £25 £84 Description and usage notes: It has a sweet sugary, caramelised, jammy, strawberry-like odour reminiscent of candyfloss. It is a very powerful ingredient normally used at high dilution for sweetening blends or in conjunction with vanilla notes to create a rich, edible scent. Available as the pure powder and in dilution upon request. Main Synonyms: 2-ethyl-3-hydroxypyran-4-one



Ethyl methy l 2 butyra te CAS No. 7452-79-1, 53956-13-1 Odour (decreasing): Fruity, pear, pineapple, green, fresh, diffusive Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known):

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £9 £10 £17 £45 Description and usage notes: Found in the odours of a wide variety of fresh fruits. Used to enhance the juiciness of other fruit scents and offers a brighter, fresher top-note than the similar isopropyl methyl 2 butyrate and is a more apple, berry type compaared to than the more pineapple note of ethyl butyrate. It is extremely diffusive adding freshness to floral fragrances and giving an unusual alternative to citrus. Try adding a small amount of this material to a fragrance containing Nectarate, Nectaryl, Fructalate or one of the fruity lactones. The result will be much juicier and more enticing. Used in combination with isopropyl methyl 2 butyrate gives a more lasting effect. Main Synonyms: Berry Butyrate, ethyl 2-methylbutanoate

Ethyl prop ionate CAS No. 105-37-3 Odour (decreasing): Sweet, ethereal, fruity-grape, and pineapple, wine-like, rum, juicy-fruit Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known):

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £10 £11 £19 £65 Description and usage notes: More widely used in flavours than fragrances, this fruity ester is nevertheless useful to add natural realism to fruit notes and Arctander suggests it is “used in perfumery to introduce an 'aged' topnote in the alcoholic perfume solutions, particularly for Citrus-colognes, etc.“ Main Synonyms: 2- methyl butyrate, ethyl propanoate, propionic ester, propionic ether,

Ethyl van i l l in CAS No. 121-32-4 Odour (decreasing): Sweet, vanilla, vanillin, powdery, chocolate. Powerful Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known):

Ethylene brassy la te CAS No. 105-95-3 Odour (decreasing): Musk, powdery, sweet, floral, ambrette-like with woody, spicy and vanilla nuances Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known):

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £8 £8 £13 £35 Description and usage notes: Ethylene brassylate is a macrocyclic musk, like most of those found in nature, it is exceptionally tenacious and a good fixative. It plays well with other musks and is probably best used in combination. One of the cheaper musks but don’t despise it for that – it is the essentail workhorse of the musks - but no less beautiful for it. See also Zenolide for an alternative macrocyclic musk that is also very well priced. Main Synonyms: 1,4-dioxacycloheptadecane-5,17-dione

Eucalypto l (1 ,8-Cineo le) CAS No. 470-82-6 Odour (decreasing): Fresh, camphoraceous-cool, eucalyptus, pine. Top-note, diffusive Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known):

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £11 £12 £21 £67 Description and usage notes: Fresh, diffusive, camphoraceous-cool odour – a top-note. Present in eucalyptus and other essential oils and headspace results. Arctander describes it as: “Widely used in perfume compositions for its refreshing effect in herbaceous type fragrances, Lavender, New Mown Hay, Fougere, etc.“ Main Synonyms: 1,8-Cineole



Eugeno l CAS No. 97-53-0 Odour (decreasing): Sweet, spicy-clove, woody, dry, with phenolic and cinnamon and allspice nuances Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known):

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £11 £12 £22 £79 Description and usage notes: For most people this is highly reminiscent of clove, which is unsurprising as it constitutes about 90% of that oil, though it is also present in a great number of other natural materials. Arctander describes it as “Powerful, warm-spicy, rather dry and almost sharp odor, drier and harder than that of Clove bud oil, less peppery-woody than that of Clove leaf oil... Extensively used in perfume compositions, conventionally in Carnation, for which purpose the author would recommend iso-Eugenol in spite of the almost unanimous use of Eugenol in published formulations. For incense, Oriental fragrances, Rose bases, certain types of Fougère, “Blue-Grass“ type fragrances, etc. and in all variations of modern Spice types, Eugenol is commonly used in large amounts.” Note however that the iso-Eugenol mentioned here by Arctander is now so heavily restricted that its use has largely been replaced by alternatives such as Methyl Diantilis or Methyl iso-eugenol. See also Eugenyl acetate for an alternative in this odour type. Main Synonyms: 2-methoxy-4-prop-2-enylphenol

Eugenyl ace ta te CAS No. 93-28-7 Odour (decreasing): Fresh, sweet, spicy-clove floral-carnation, woody. Mellowing Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known):

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £11 £13 £24 £88 Description and usage notes: Good substitute for Eugenol & Isoeugenol where IFRA restrictions or allergy declaration is a problem. Also much longer lasting, more balsamic and sweeter than eugenol, so excellent for carnation scents. Arctander says of it: “Used in perfumes to emphasize floralness in carnation, along with iso-Eugenol, Amyl oxy-iso-eugenol, etc. Fresher than these, but also milder. Not stable in white soap or alkali.“ Main Synonyms: Eugenol acetate, Acetyl eugenol



Exal to l ide (no t Firmenich) CAS No. 106-02-5 Odour (decreasing): sweet, musky-animal, rich, herbal Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known):

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £13 £16 £30 £106 Description and usage notes: Very fine and elegant musk with a natural quality, adds depth and roundness to a wide variety of creations but it also has a synergistic effect on the bouquet of a fragrance. At >98% purity this generic is the equivalent of the Firmenich product Exaltolide (as distinct from Exaltolide Total, which is at 92% purity). Arctander describes it like this: “Delicately animal, musky and sweet, extremely tenacious odor of outstanding uniformity. Its fixative effect is absolutely unusual in that it is not a physical fixation, but a true fixative and mellowing effect at incredibly low concentrateion of usage. The effect of perfumes containing this Lactone differ from others in the excellent 'wearability' introduced by the Lactone. This is particularly conspicuous when the perfume is applied to the skin.“ This is solid at room temperature but melts at about 50 Centigrade – can also be supplied at 50% in ethanol / DPG if you prefer at the same price. Main Synonyms: 16-oxacyclohexadecan-1-one, Angelica Musk, cyclopentadecanolide, macrolide, Omegapentadecalactone, omega-pentadecalactone

Exal tone (no t Firmenich) CAS No. 502-72-7 Odour (decreasing): Musk, sweet, animalic, powdery, erogenic Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known):

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £47 £72 £142 534 Description and usage notes: In my view perhaps the finest of all the musks, effective in traces, synergistic with other musks and with a very nice animalic undertone this is the musk that occurs in the Muskrat odour naturally, here produced synthetically at >99% purity but not by Firmenich. Very rarely offered in small amounts. Arctander is enthusiastic about it too: “Powerful musky odor, very similar to that of Muscone (Methylcyclopentadecanone) and, in the opinion of many perfumers, superior in type and beauty. It ranks among the finest and most efficient fixatives known, and - like Cyclopentadecanolide - it improves the 'wearability' of a perfume when properly incorporated in the fragrance. Its power becomes more perceptible and evident in extreme dilution, e.g. below one percent in the perfume oil.“ Comes as fine crystals. Main Synonyms: Cyclopentadecanone, muscosyn, nor-muscone, romanone extra pure

Farneso l CAS No. 4602-84-0 Odour (decreasing): Fresh, green, muguet, sweet, floral-linden, fruity-apricot, spicy-anise Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known):

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £16 £21 £39 £136 Description and usage notes: Very mild and delicate green floral odour with typical lily of the valley character and excellent fixative effect on many floral notes. Farnesol is one of the classic perfumery ingredients and is present in many flowers and herbs from orange flowers to thyme. Once reserved only for the most expensive fragrances it became more widely available in the 1960s when synthesis methods became more cost-effective. Recommended usage levels are from traces to 10% of the concentrate. Tenacity is around 16 days on a smelling strip so it is a base note, but it has middle-note effects as well. Arctander recommends it as “an excellent background note and blender in the delicate floral such as Muguet, Lilac, etc. or in the balsamic types, Oriental fragrances, Chypres etc. It combines the softest woody notes of Orris with the sweet and balsamic floral notes of Muguet, Rose, Magnolia, Acacia, etc. It blends excellently with Ylang Ylang, Cassie, Rose, Violet, Neroli, Cyclamen, etc. and it is an almost necessary ingredient in the so-called ‘Linden- blossom’ type fragrance.“ Main Synonyms: 3,7,11-trimethyldodeca-2,6,10-trien-1-ol, dragosantol, farnesyl alcohol

Fixateure 505 CAS No. - Odour (decreasing): Ambergris, old wood, woody, animalic. Diffusive, fixative Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known): Firmenich

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £49 £76 £150 £399 Description and usage notes: This is one of the classic bases that has been in widespread use in perfumery since Firmenich introduced it to showcase the, then captive, Ambrox DL. From an olfactory point of view it is represents a very white, clean Ambergris, its great value being as an exalting fixative with ambergris character. Description from Firmenich: “A very powerful odour of ambergris with a slightly woody-dry character.“ Main Synonyms:

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £12 £15 £27 £99 Description and usage notes: One of my favourite materials for adding lift to a fragrance. Neat it isn’t pleasant though – dilute to appreciate. Floralozone can be used to give a subtle, fresh lift to almost any fragrance when used in small amounts but it is especially useful in floral compositions – in moderation it is ideal for adding a ‘fresh-air’ note to fragrances. Description from IFF: ”Powerful, clean, green, fresh air note reminiscent of ocean breezes. Gives lift to fragrances without dominating due to its neutral nature.” Main Synonyms: Floral-orange flower, methyl anthranilate, musk

Normally used at less than 1% of the concentrate except in Lilly of the Valley applications. Recommended usage is 0.2-2% with tenacity of about one week on a smelling strip, this material also works well in burning applications such as candles and joss sticks. Description from Givaudan: “Floral, Green, Muguet, Fresh, Powerful. Florhydral has a very floral, fresh, trendy, natural odour (such as lily-of-the-valley, hyacinth...). Its great intensity and pleasant quality make it useful in all areas of perfumery. Florhydral is also valuable in fragrances for laundry products where a fresh residual odour is desired. Florhydral gives naturalness together with aldehydes in citrus accords.“ Main Synonyms: 3-(3-propan-2-ylphenyl)butanal, iso propyl phenyl butanal, Floral Butanal

Fruc ta la te CAS No. 72903-27-6 Odour (decreasing): Fruity-raspberry and apple, ethereal, waxy Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known): Firmenich

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £10 £11 £19 £64 Description and usage notes: This product was developed by Firmenich, who describe it like this: “Fruity, raspberry, apple, ethereal. Non−edible fruity note with good tenacity and volume, powerful, affordable, and stable. The product is great in aircare and liquid applications for bloom and is used frequently for its boosting effects on fruity, citrus and herbal notes.“ Fructalate is amazingly versatile – in small doses you can use it to enhance diffusion of almost any fragrance – larger proportions will give you a fruitiness that is dry rather than sweet and can be pushed in the direction of almost any fruit. It is especially good at enhancing room fragrances and works well in reed diffusers and similar applications. To fruity notes what Hedione is to floral and citrus types. Main Synonyms: diethyl cyclohexane-1,4-dicarboxylate, raspberry dicarboxylate



Fruc tone CAS No. 6413-10-1 Odour (decreasing): Fruity-apple and sweet tropical-fruit, floral, warm Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known):

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £11 £12 £21 £94 Description and usage notes: Fruity-apple and sweet tropical-fruit note, more tenacious than many of the fruity acetates, sometimes described as wine-like or having a cooked strawberries odour. This is what Arctander says of this material: “This ketal type of chemical has found some use in perfume compositions where a certain deep-fruity note is desirable along with a floral complex. Jasmin, Tuberose, Gardenia and many other floral bases, spicy fragrances, etc. can achieve new and interesting 'lifts’ from this material, which has an overall effect resembling that of the alkyl-substituted Cyclo-pentenones and their homoiogues.“ The material offered here is a high-purity generic, not from IFF. Main Synonyms: apple ketal, applinal, applitone, fragolan, fructone B, fruitinal, jasmaprunat, ketopmmal, methyl dioxylane

Galaxo l ide 50 (IPM) CAS No. 1222-05-5 Odour (decreasing): Musk, sweet, fresh, powdery, clean Solvent: IPM 50% Manufacturer (if known): IFF

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £9 £10 £17 £34 Description and usage notes: This is 50% Galaxolide fluidised with IPM rather than DEP so better for those who wish to avoid phthalates. Galaxolide is an isochroman musk, that has an odour profile that isliked by most people and is similar to a macrocyclic musk. It is strong, clean smelling and a good fixative. It combines well with other musks and is often used in combinations. One of the cheapest musks that is still used on a very large scale. In pure form it is very difficult to work with being a very thick, sticky liquid so IFF also sell it at 50% in either DEP or IPM in this form it is a mobile liquid that is easy to handle and use. Main Synonyms: 1,3,4,6,7,8-hexahydro-4,6,6,7,8,8-hexamethylcyclopenta(g)-2-benzopyran



gamma-Deca lac tone CAS No. 706-14-9 Odour (decreasing): fruity-peach, creamy, sweet Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known):

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £9 £10 £17 £63 Description and usage notes: Fruity-peach, creamy and extremely persistent. Arctander tells us “It finds use in floral perfume compositions, particularly those of Gardenia and other heavy floral type, and often in combination with considerable amounts of synthetic musks.“ I would say it's essential for a good peach or osmanthus accord – see also gamma-Dodecalactone. Main Synonyms:

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £13 £16 £29 £134 Description and usage notes: Fruity-peach, very creamy and incredibly persistent – this stuff lasts as long as most musks. Even creamier than gamma-Decalactone but deceptively powerful, it’s probably 10 times stronger. Essential for a good peach or osmanthus accord. Arctander recommends it for fruity-fatty topnotes and long tenacity in, for example, heavy floral fragrances and says: “It is also used in combination with newer synthetic musks to produce exceptional tenacity and lasting sweetness in powdery and in floral types.“ See also gamma-Decalactone Main Synonyms:



gamma-Octa lac tone CAS No. 104-50-7, 57084-15-8 Odour (decreasing): Sweet, coconut, waxy, creamy, coumarin, milky, rich Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known):

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £10 £11 £20 £66 Description and usage notes: Slightly softer and sweeter than “Aldehyde C18“ (gamma-Nonalactone) this gives a nice alternative coconut note that is more like fresh coconut and also good for adding creaminess to a composition. According to Arctander: “This lactone is used in perfumery in heavy floral fragrances such as Gardenia, Tuberose, Hyacinth, and even in Lily. It serves as an interesting modifier or substitute for Coumarin in herbaceous fragrance types, Fougeres, Lavenders, etc. In spite of its comparatively low boiling point, it has an excellent tenacity.“ Main Synonyms: gamma-n-But yl-gamma-butyrolactone, Caprylolactone, g-octalactone, 4-octanolide

gamma-Terp inene CAS No. 99-85-4 Odour (decreasing): Fresh, herbaceous, citrusy, terpy, sweet, tropical and lime, woody Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known):

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £10 £11 £20 £91 Description and usage notes: Arctander says: “This isomer is the highest boiling of the Terpinenes. It has a refreshingly herbaceous-citrusy odor, not as lemony as the alpha-isomer, but somewhat warmer“ and warns that “It is easily oxidized to the less desirable para-Cymene.“ Appears frequently in GC and Headspace analyses and may also be the source of the P-Cymene often observed in those results.

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £14 £17 £31 £108 Description and usage notes: Isolated by Bush Boake Allen (now part of IFF) and notoriously difficult to buy in small quantities. Here at 1% in DPG, this is geosmin bought pure from IFF, diluted by Pell Wall and still so strong it must be used with caution. Geosmin is the scent of a freshly ploughed field, the first rain after a dry period, damp and deceptively powerful. Geosmin doesn't seem particularly strong when you sniff the 1% solution, but even a drop or two will have yourn neighbours wondering whether it's raining. Traces in a fragrance can give you a unique effect and greatly increase diffusion. Like nothing else and very special indeed. Main Synonyms:

Here at 10% in DPG, this is geosmin bought pure from IFF, diluted by Pell Wall and still too strong to be practical to use: dilute to 0.1% for blending. Geosmin is the scent of a freshly ploughed field, the first rain after a dry period, damp and deceptively powerful. Geosmin doesn't seem particularly strong when you sniff the 10% solution, but even a drop or two at 1% will have yourn neighbours wondering whether it's raining.

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £577 £944 £1,868 Description and usage notes: Isolated by Bush Boake Allen (now part of IFF) and notoriously difficult to buy in small quantities. This is geosmin bought pure from IFF and sold on in that form by Pell Wall: unless you need it free of DPG for some reason, consider one of the dilutions instead: in this form it requires refrigerated storage and is far too strong for even quite large-scale manufacturing until diluted. Geosmin is the scent of a freshly ploughed field, the first rain after a dry period, damp and deceptively powerful.

Arctander says: “One of the most frequently used perfume chemicals, this alcohol finds its way into all types of perfumes for all kinds of purposes … Although primarily a rose material, Geraniol is used generally as a sweet floral material of outstanding versatility. It forms conventionally a major part of most artificial YlangYlang bases, and is often included in creations of Peony, Sweet Pea, Frangipanni, Magnolia, etc. etc.“ Main Synonyms:

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £9 £9 £15 £49 Description and usage notes: Geranyl acetate is an exceptionally versatile top-note material. A lighter, fresher alternative to Geraniol, present in a range of herbs, flowers and essential oils it’s ideal for adding a fresh top-note to a fragrance without being overtly citrus, green or even very floral. It blends easily into almost all compositions adding a little lift. Arctander says it is: “Widely used in perfume compositions as a sweetener and modifier in floral, fruity, herbaceous and Citrusy fragrance types, usually at a modest level of one to five percent in the concentrated perfume oil, but with great variations according to the purpose of its use. It blends well with Bergamot, Lavender, Rose, Muguet, Wallflower, Ylang Ylang, Neroli and even Leather, Oriental and other very complex fragrance types.“ Main Synonyms:

According to Arctander it is used “mainly to introduce fruity notes in or near the topnote composition. It may also find some use in heavy florals with pronounced fruity tones, such as Gardenia, Passionflower, etc. but even in Geranium, Lavender and naturally in variations of Rose bases it finds extensive application.“ Main Synonyms:

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £9 £9 £15 £25 Description and usage notes: Probably the most widely used aroma chemical in all of perfumery. This is original Firmenich material, not one of the substitutes now widely offered. Very useful in citrus as well as virtually all florals, Hedione can improve many fragrance types and can be effective in doses from under 1% to 50% of the formula.

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £27 £40 £77 £286 Description and usage notes: Very useful as an alternative to Heliotropine, which although widely used in perfumery is difficult for the amateur and small-scale perfumer to buy. The odour is more floral and less powdery than Heliotropine with less of the cherry-note so it should be used in combination with other substitutes such as Acetanisole. It is also less powerful, so more will be needed to adequately substitute for Heliotropine in a formula. Comes as a mobile liquid. Main Synonyms:

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £28 £41 £80 £335 Description and usage notes: Very sophisticated musk, reminiscent of musk ambrette but with a slight fruity component. Works well in combination with other musks, having a synergistic effect with several of them (including Exaltolide and Habanolide for example), so that very small doses can be an effective boost to a musk complex. Description from Firmenich: ”A sophisticated, modern musky note with a fruity pear aspect. Olfactively, between Ambrettolide and Ethylene Brassylate. Use: This musk performs particularly well in liquid applications (alcohol solution, shampoo, body wash) and emulsions.

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £13 £16 £30 £114 Description and usage notes: According to Arctander: “this ester finds considerable use in perfumes, where it may lend pleasant and natural freshness to delicate florals (Muguet, Lilac, Narcisse, etc.) and participate in creating true-to-Nature, foliage-green topnotes in other fragrance types. The ester is most likely to supersede the less stable and less natural smelling Alkyl acetylenic esters, slowly being abandoned in modem perfumery.“ Main Synonyms: Leaf acetate

Longer lasting than the similar Amyl Cinnamaldehyde. According to Arctander it is: “Very mild, sweet-oily, slightly floral odor with a trace of hcrbaccous undertones. The odor becomes considerably more floral and lively when the material is incorporated with more volatile material in a composition... This aidehyde finds considerable use in perfume formulations for its rich floral and pleasant oily-herbaccous odor-contribution to Jasmin bases, Gardenia, Tuberose, Magnolia, etc. and in general as part of a floral theme in other fragrance types.“ Main Synonyms: alpha- hexylcinnamic aldehyde, hexyl cinnamal, hexyl cinnamic aldehyde, jasmonal H

Hindino l - New CAS No. 28219-60-5 Odour (decreasing): Sandalwood, woody, milky, creamy Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known): Takasago

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £10 £11 £19 £61 Description and usage notes: This is has more powerful and diffusive odour than natural Sandalwood but is closer to the natural than the related Santaliff. Sharing a CAS number and basic molecular formula with Santaliff it is superficially the same thing and they are listed by some as synonyms, however Hindinol is the laevo form, with most others on the market are racemic. Excellent to support the natural or as part of a sandalwood accord, though I don't recommend using it alone. Where this material really comes into its own is as a fixative - 0.5-5% of the concentrate will give effective fixation to most blends. From Takasago “Widely used in all product types. Gives a more natural and fresh character.“ Arcadi Boix Camps is enthusiastic about it: writing in 2009 he dedicated two full pages to this material, describing it as “revolutionary“. This is how he introduced the topic: “This is again, and I am not exaggerating, is one of the best sandalwood chemicals, as captivating as it is extraordinary and extremely new. Most sandalwood chemicals lack a natural top note and we perfumers need to create it; however when using Hindinol, the natural top note appears and this top note is a dream come true.“ Main Synonyms: laevo sandalmysore core

Extremely common in many natural oils and headspace results but less commonly used than the beta form and so rarely offered. Useful for adding a watery note and one of very few naturally occurring materials that offer this. See also b-Caryophyllene which is isomeric with this material. Main Synonyms: alpha-Caryophyllene

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £9 £10 £17 £39 Description and usage notes: A classic floral heart note, notice that this isn’t the same as Hyacinth Body (AKA Verdilyn). Description from IFF: “Odor: Green, floral, lilac, hyacinth and sweet pea.“ Arctander describes it as: “Powerful, ethereal, green-herbal and leafy odor and very natural character. Useful in perfumes as a topnote in moss-types, single florals and herbaceous chypres. Usually much less than 1 % in the perfume oil.“ Main Synonyms: acetal R, acetal S, acetaldehyde propyl phenethyl acetal, leafy acetal, pepital, propyl phenethyl acetal, resedafol, vert de capicine

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £17 £23 £44 £179 Description and usage notes: Unusual fresh, clean ‘dead-leaves’ note of surprising persistence. Best used in low doses this once popular material has rather fallen out of fashion and is therefore rarely offered. Arctander offers this “Balsamic-green, oily-earthy odor with warm-spicy undertones and moderate tenanacity... This aldehyde is used quite commonly in perfume compositions, including soap pefumes. As a modifier in Hyacinth, Rose, Lilac, Heliotrope, Sweet Pea, Frangipanni, etc. or as a novel note in Fougere-spice or Bay-spice odors, it may enter a formulation at the rate of several percent. It does not have the penetrating, pungent power of Phenylacetaldehyde, but it has more of a warm-spicy, deep sweetness, and it is considerably more stable than Phenylacetaldehyde. The aldehyde is of special interest as an undertone in Rose bases. Traces are used in various berry compositions, Cherry, Almond, Cinnamon, Peach, Plum, etc. to lend a modified and more attractive 'Bitter Almond' note than the one supplied by Benzaldehyde alone.“ Main Synonyms:

Hydroxyc i t rone l la l CAS No. 107-75-5 Odour (decreasing): Floral-muguet, fresh, green, sweet Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known):

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £10 £11 £19 £62 Description and usage notes: Sweet floral perfume-like notes with green citrus and melon undertones, regarded by most perfumers as the closest one-molecule match to the scent of lily of the valley flowers. NOTE: this is best stabilised with the addition of hydroxycitronellol and I am now offering it pre-blended in the proper proportions. Arctander describes the odour as: “Sweet-floral, at first delicate and refreshingly mild, but often increasing in odor strength after short olfactory study. The floral notes are mild, light and resemble Lily of the Valley. The tenacity is good, and the odor diffusion increases significantly when the material is properly blended with lower boiling odorants or modifiers.“ He goes on to suggest it is: “one of the most frequently used floralizing perfume materials. Originially introduced as a 'Muguet' material, it finds its way into almost every type of floral fragrance, and a great many nonfloral ones. Its concentration in perfumes may vary from about 1% (which rarely gives effect unless supported by parallel materials) up to 30 or 40% in straight floral types. It is almost a 'must' in Muguet (at certain price levels) and Peony, Lily, Sweet Pea, Narcisse, Lindenblossom, etc. and it had a monopoly on these types for more than 40 years during which period not one material appeared that could truly replace Hydroxycitronellal.“ Modern restrictions on its use mean that it is not now used at the levels it was when Arctander was writing, but it remains an essential of the perfumer's palette.

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £12 £14 £25 £89 Description and usage notes: Sweet floral perfume-like notes with green citrus and melon undertones, regarded by most perfumers as the closest one-molecule match to the scent of lily of the valley flowers. NOTE: offered here with the addition of 25% hydroxycitronellol to stabilise the aldehyde avoiding problems with oxidation that are otherwise significant. The odour profile is almost identical with hydroxycitronellal alone with some additional fixation; the mixture forms a hemi-acetal. Arctander describes the odour as: “Sweet-floral, at first delicate and refreshingly mild, but often increasing in odor strength after short olfactory study. The floral notes are mild, light and resemble Lily of the Valley. The tenacity is good, and the odor diffusion increases significantly when the material is properly blended with lower boiling odorants or modifiers.“ He goes on to suggest it is: “one of the most frequently used floralizing perfume materials.

Arctander tells us that it: ''is used in perfume compositions originally with the intention of stabilizing Hydroxycitronellal and prolonging the odor life of that aldehyde in compositions. However, there are other uses for this alcohol, not always obvious from a brief glimpse at the odor, which is, truly, not immediately impressive. It has an excellent fixative effect upon many types of delicate floral fragrance, and as a blender/modifier for other types. The use of Hydroxycitronellol as a stabilizer for Hydroxycitronellal is still practised, but the author finds that the alcohol has much wider possibilities and virtues of its own as an odorant.” Main Synonyms:

An essential component of the scent of many flowers including jasmine, gardenia, narcissus and others it is it is very widely used and absolutely necessary for realistic flower scents. Arctander writes extensively about this material; here are a couple of extracts: “Extremely diffusive and powerful odor, almost tarry-repulsive and choking when concentrated, but in concentrations lower than 0.1%. or in compositions, it shows powerful floral notes and pleasant radiation. Good tenacity, in spite of the volatility at room temperature.“ Main Synonyms:

It is many decades since the single floral Violet note was appreciated as a fragrance for cosmetic purposes, but lonone has found numerous other applications. The use of lonone in Rose bases is very common and generally well liked, and smaller amounts of lonone are used in woody, herbaceous, floral, balsamic, piney or Citrus-like fragrances. It is almost not possibe to name a fragrance in which Ionone has not been tried for modifications, blending, floralizing mellowing etc. It is often part of the highly desirable complex that displays 'powdery' undetlones in a fragrance.“ Main Synonyms: (E)-4-(2,6,6-trimethyl-1-cyclohex-2-enyl)but-3-en-2-one

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £9 £9 £15 £30 Description and usage notes: Still very violet but also distinctively fruity. As Arctander points out “There is some degree of disagreement between perfumers as to the 'fruity' note. Not all perfumers find it fruity, and the general preference for one Ionone over the other as a perfume material also seems to vary. The common viewpoint is that bera-Ionone resembles Cedarwood and has a Raspberry-like undertone, while alpha-Ionone is the more typical Violet odor, sweeter, and less green than the beta-isomer.“ The beta isomer can be used instead, or more commonly alongside the alpha in many circumstances and appears in the headspace of many flowers, though in most cases as a minor constituent. Arctander suggests other uses: “It finds its way more into fragrances rich in woody notes, including those employing newer derivatives of Cyclohexanol, etc. It is also more widely used in lipstick fragrances on account of its compatibility with fruity fragrance materials. “ Main Synonyms: 4-(2,6,6-trimethylcyclohexen-1-yl)but-3-en-2-one

Arctander tells us that: “With skilful use and blending with the proper lonone derivatives. it is possible to fully utilize the Irone, but its perfumery application remains restricted by cost ancl unfortunately, lack of experience in the use of this exquisite material ... The odor is soft, warm, Orris-Violet-like, sweet and extremely diffusive. Its true power and effect is clearly demonstrated in dilutions or in active use at concentrations near one percent in a perfume composition. The 'lift' and the radiance introduced by this ketone are its greatest assets and advantages to compensate for its high cost.“ Main Synonyms:

Effective even in traces to add warmth and volume to a fragrance. Arctander says it is: “Diffusive, warm-spicy, somewhat fruity, but in dilution more floral odor of good tenacity. Its beauty is truly demonstrated in dilutions below one percent, or in modest amounts in a perfume composition. The pure material has notes reminiscent of Celery seed, some find it ’bread-like', others find it 'fruity','waxy' etc. Evaluation of a powerful odorant should be undertaken by proper dilution of the material so that nuances can be studied without the inconveniences of odor fatigue.“ adding that “it may find its way into numerous floral fragrance types and many non-floral ones... Traces, often mere fractions of one percent in a perfume oil may introduce just that wanted warmth and deep floral note almost unobtainable with other chemicals.“ Current stock is a generic cis-Jasmone.

Description from Givaudan: “Javanol is a new-generation sandalwood molecule with unprecedented power and substantivity. It has a rich, natural, creamy sandalwood note like beta santanol. With its exceptional low threshold, it is approximately 8x more effective in wash tests on a weight basis than the most powerful known product. In addition, its very good stability, due in part to the complete absence of double bond, makes it suitable for all applications except bleach.“.

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £8 £8 £14 £28 Description and usage notes: One of a range of synthetics used to recreate the scent of the Lily of the Valley (muguet). Like most of the other materials that imitate that flower it is an aldehyde. Lilial is widely used in fine fragrance and other areas and combines well with other floral and green materials. The scent is described as floral muguet, watery, green, powdery and cumin. According to Arctander this aldehyde has notes resembling hydroxycitronellal and Cyclamen aldehyde: “Sweet, yet refreshing and intensely floral-green odor of considerable radiance, although at the same time quite tenacious“. He goes on to tell us it is “An excellent floralizer in itself, it also blends well with other floral materials, as well as with the musks and woody notes. It is far more versatile than Cyclamen aldehyde, or one can say that it is much more difficult to ’overdose' Lilial than it is to overdose Cyclamal. Yet, Lilial gives floral effects at lower concentration than Hydroxycitronellal, a fact that almost compensates for the cost difference. A conventional material in Lily, Lilac, Muguet, Orangeblossom, Magnolia, Sweet Pea, Frangipanni, it is also used in Chypres, Orientals, wood complexes and musky bases, as weIl as in modem fantasy soap perfumes, etc.“ Main Synonyms: 3-(4-tert-butylphenyl)butanal, alpha-Methyl-para-tertiary-butyl hydro-cinnamic aldehyde.

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £9 £10 £18 £62 Description and usage notes: From IFF: Floral, Muguet, Aldehydic Use: Soft delicate floral, lily, cyclamen, lilac note reminiscent of hydroxycitronellal. Extraordinary tenacity and diffusivity. A powerful blending agent giving richness throughout all dryout phases of a perfume composition. Arctander writes very enthusiastically about this material: “Lyral was at first believed to be of fixative value only, e. g. in high-class soap perfumes, etc. But it was soon discovered that Lyral has a floral volume which, when properly 'cultivated' by the creative perfumer, often outperforms Hydrocitronellal and any other floral chemical or combination of chemicals, Its application is therefore continuously expanding from the single floral Muguet to become the 'must' in cosmetic fragrances where tenacity and sweet-powdery, stable terminal notes are called for. It blends excellently with the Ionones and with the conventional resinoids (Styrax, Tolu, Peru, etc. ) and it may either accompany Hydroxycitroneilal or substitute it. It is generally agreed that it is distinctly superior to Hydroxycitronellal in overall effect and stability.Lyral is higher boiling than Hydroxycitronellal and seems to be more stable under normally mild, alkaline conditions. It forms Schiff’s bases with Anthranilates, and condensation products with lndole, Skatole, Quinolines and a few other perfume materials.The normal use concentration will be from 1 or 2% as a floral modifier or part-fixative to 6, 8 or 10% in typically floral and tenacious fragrances.“ See also Lyral Replacer by Pell Wall as Lyral will be almost certainly be completely banned by the EU in the next year or two.

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £10 £11 £19 £73 Description and usage notes: Green mandarin oil is produced from the young, imature fruits of the mandarin. It's a deep green colour - darker than you may be used to if you've been buying from other sources - that's because it hasn't been cut with anything else. The rich, complex odour is very characteristically mandarin but the green form in particular shares many characteristics with the much more expensive neroli oil and can be used as an effective substitute in cheaper formulations or booser in more expensive ones. This oil, an exceptionally good example, comes from Citroflor, one of the specialist manufacturers of citrus oils for the perfumery industry. Main Synonyms: Green mandarin, Citrus reticulata

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £9 £9 £15 £39 Description and usage notes: One of the classic perfumery ingredients of wide application, limited mainly by its reactivity with other perfumery materials. Arctander says of it: “This ester is widely used in perfume compositions as a sweet-floral Orangeblossom-type ingredient. Often applied in combination with Petitgrain oil, it supplies much of the background in Cashmere bouquet type fragrances and other Oriental, heavy floral or sweet-woody types.“ he goes on to point out that methyl anthranilate produces “condensation products with various aldehydes (Schiff’s bases) or with Acetophenone, Musk Ketone, Ionones, etc. are often utilized in perfume compositions. It should therefore be kept in mind that when Methyl anthranilate is used in compositions with one or more of the named (or other) aldehydes and ketones, there is a good chance of chemical processes taking place in the perfume oil. The change may be visually perceptible (color increases, usually to yellow or browninsh tints) or olfactory (intensified sweetness, loss of aldehyde components etc.) and it may take place over a period of from 24 hours up to many months. The most popular condensation products are those with the floral aldehydes: hydroxycitronellal (Aurantiol, etc,), Anisaldehyde (Acaciol), etc. Certain aldehydes produce very dark colored condensation products and to should be avoided in compositions where Methyl anthranilate must be used (Citral, Citronella, etc.). When the two components enter at very low percentage, there is generally no discoloration problem (several Citrus oils contain Citral and Methyl anthranilate at the same time). “ Main Synonyms: methyl 2-aminobenzoate

Description from Givaudan: “Spicy, Carnation, Sweet, Vanilla, a Givaudan captive for several years an elegant, spicy/sweet ingredient with a similar olfactive note to Isoeugenol, but with an additional powdery aspect reminiscent of carnation (Dianthus caryophyllus). Unlike Isoeugenol, it is much less susceptible to discolouration and, importantly, is not restricted by IFRA.“ Main Synonyms: 2-ethoxy-4-(methoxymethyl)phenol, Dianthus ethanone

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £9 £10 £17 £50 Description and usage notes: This is a very high quality of methyl ionone iso, broadly equivalent to the Givaudan product Cetone Alpha but generic. Arctander says of this material: “The odor of this isomer is generally considered more attractive than any other Methylionone, perhaps with the exception of the beta-iso-Methylionone, so-called delta-Methylionone. It is extremely versatile in character, and effects ranging from sweet floral to tobacco-like or woody are obtainable with various grades of subject material. The most refined grades, which are quite expensive, often show a very attractive “creamy“ top-note and a most uniform, powdery-sweet dryout performance. This type of Methylionone can support floral notes in Ylang-Ylang as well as woody notes in Vetiver, or leathery notes in Salicylates, etc. Certain types of perfume contain up to 25% or more of this material. Many soap perfumes are based upon a large volume of common-grade Methylonone with the subject isomer as pre-dominant component.” Main Synonyms: alpha-isomethyl ionone, cetone alpha

Widely used as an alternative to the heavily restricted isoeugenol. Stronger than eugenol acetate but less tenacious, spicier and not as vanillic as methyl diantilis. Arctander says that: “Of the common derivatives of Eugenol, it is one of the most Carnation-like. This phenolether is used in perfume compositions as part of Carnation bases, as a fixative in spicy fragrances, as a mildly spicy note in Rose, Ylang and other florals. It is commonly used in variations of 'L’Origan' type fragrances, Oriental perfumes, etc. and it blends well with Labdanum or other Ambre-like materials, with woody notes, Ionones, etc. Interesting combinations are obtained with Opopanax or Linalool or derivatives of Linalool.“ Main Synonyms: iso-Eugenol methylether, 4-Propenyl veratrole, 1,2-Dirnethoxy-4-propenylbenzene.

MMB is completely miscible with water in all proportions and although somewhat flammable when pure, adding just 10% water results in an unmeasurable flashpoint. Low oxidation and linear evaporation make it the solvent of choice for air care. Main Synonyms: 3-Methoxy-3-Methyl-1-Butanol

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £45 £69 £135 £459 Description and usage notes: Very good, versatile musk with some resemblance to musk ketone and muscone in its odour. Description from Firmenich: ”A very elegant nitromusk type of odor reminiscent of Musk Ketone, with a slight animal but natural undertone. A very powerful musk with two facets. At low dosages (0.05 to 0.5%), it is a fragrance enhancer. Above this level, it is used for its musky character in addition to its boosting effect. It has excellent substantivity on fabric, hair and skin; imparting a musky, powdery, cosmetic softness.” Here's Arcadi Boix Camps writing in 1999: “... muscenone delta is animal, strongly musk tonkin, and plays a role in the natural product's odor, perhaps a more important one than muscone. The same thing happens when smelling a rose-flower fragrance, where the smell of damascenone and beta-damascone is almost as strong as the scent of beta-phenylethyl alcohol or citronellol, although they are persent in minute traces. Muscenone delta smells of the most animal-like part of deer musk powder or musk absolute, if made. All of these unsaturated macrocyclic musks are incredibly strong, and accords we made in the past mixing cresols with exaltolide or muscone and are now much finer and more elegant when using muscenone delta or chemically related products. It is being widely used in fragrances such as Bulgari for Men.“ Main Synonyms: 3-Methylene cyclopentadecanone, delta-muscenone

Arctander says this of it: “This alcohol is widely and frequently used in perfumery, but not nearly in the volumes of Geraniol and Citronellol.

A very delicate soft material used to give floral fixation and to add tea-like notes to fragrance. Arctander has quite a lot to say about it, here's an extract: “It is actually an extremely useful chemical, not only because of its delicate and very versatile notes, but also, because of its fixative value and blending properties.

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £11 £12 £21 £73 Description and usage notes: A powerful traditional perfumery material with a sweet floral aroma of orange blossom, acacia and neroli. Widely used in classic fragrances. Powdery crystals, so can also offer it in a solvent if preferred, but the pearlescent white crystals are rather beautiful and dissolve readily in ethanol so why not buy them as they are? Arctander gives us some useful data: “The odor of highly purified material is intensely sweet, Orangeblossom-Acacia-like, very tenacious, but many commercial grades are poorly refined and display rather harsh notes, an odor description generally used for this material... This ether is used extensively in low-cost fragrances for household products, soaps, detergents (but rarely in dishwashing detergents), and particularly in products where heat-and-alkali-stability are required. It is also used as masking odor for acrylic or other 'plastic' odors, synthetic rubbers, etc., which requires good retentiveness. A very inexpensive, non-purified grade is available for industrial masking purposes, and it offers powerful odor and good fixation. There is a considerable difference in price between the crude and the refined grades. [the crude] product is brownish, dark amber-colored or pale purple colored, usually in lumps of crystalline structure... [quite different from] the white refined product. “ Main Synonyms: beta-Napthyl methyl ether, Nerolin 1, Yara-Yara

According to Arctander: “This ester finds use in perfume compositions, when cost allows for it, for Neroli, Jasmin, floral and fruity fragrance types. lt costs several times more than Geranyl acetate, but has much more sweet and fruity power. Unfortunately, there are poorer grades of Nerylacetate on the market containing significant amounts of Geranylacetate which conceals the true olfactory effect of the title ester.“ Main Synonyms: [(2Z)-3,7-dimethylocta-2,6-dienyl] acetate, nerol acetate

This isn't like most woody chemicals that evoke the smell of freshly cut woods of various kinds: Norlimbanol is more like the smell you get from a piece of driftwood that has been sitting in the sun. Description from Firmenich: ”Extremely powerful woody and animal amber note. NORLIMBANOL™ has a dry woody note in the patchouli direction”. As described by Chandler Burr: “Norlimbanol is one of the most amazing scents around, a genius molecule that should be worth its weight in gold; Norlimbanol gives you, quite simply, the smell of extreme dryness, absolute desiccation, and if you smell it, you'll understand that instantly—the molecule is, by itself, a multi-sensory Disney ride.“ Solid at room temperature so also offered at 50% in ethanol if preferred. Main Synonyms: Timber propanol

Main Synonyms: Boswellia carteri, frakincense resinoid, frankincese oleoresin

The solvent extracted equivalent of steam-distilled neroli oil, coming from the flowers of the bitter orange tree, Citrus aurantium Amara in this case from Morocco. A thick, dark brown, mobile liquid that dissolves readily in ethanol. Easy to use if only it wasn’t so costly… Arctander says of it: “Orange Flower Absolute is used in countless types of perfumes, heavy Oriental as well as light citrus colognes, chypres and ambres as well as floral bouquets, modern aldehydic fantasy blends, etc. The absolute forms excellent combinations with all citrus oils, petitgrain oils, linalool, linalyl acetate, Iinalyl cinnamate, methyl anthranilate, various jasmones, myrrh resinoid, etc. It naturally forms an important part of the fixative base in high-class citrus colognes and perfumes of similar type.“ Main Synonyms: Citrus aurantium

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £11 £12 £21 £59 Description and usage notes: An inexpensive way to add a light but very tenacious orange-flower note with a powdery quality to fragrances; it also has some fixative value. One of the classic perfumery materials that aren’t so fashionable but nevertheless are effective. Arctander says this of it “Although its odor has often been compared to that of Methyl-athranilate, it represents an entirely different type of Orangeblossom sweetness, without the agressive harshness of the Anthranilate... The material is widely used in perfume compositions, mainly in Neroli, Orangeblossom, Sweet Pea, Magnolia, Honeysuckle, Wistaria, Narcisse, Jasmin, various exotic florals such as Frangipanni, etc. It may have a perceptible effect in the perfume (or base) at concentrations well below one percent, and the effect is particularly noticeable in the terminal notes. “ Main Synonyms: Cetone D, beta-Napthyl methyl ketone, nerolys nerolon, orangeol, orenolia

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £10 £11 £19 £72 Description and usage notes: Used widely in perfumery, with a powerful green-earthy, flower-stem-like odour. More green and less floral then phenylacetaldehyde but useful as a supplement to that aldehyde as it isn’t restricted by IFRA. Arctander says: “This is one of the most widely used 'acetals' in perfumery. Although always a minor component, it enters a multitude of fragrance types where it may lend green notes, earthy notes, floral notes, spicy notes or simply power. It performs excellently with Oakmoss and Vetiver, Geranium, Opopanax, etc. in Lilac, Rose, Muguet, Oriental bases, etc. and with the Methylionones in woody-floral-spicy complexes t is often used in Gardenia, Reseda and Carnation to lend spicy foliage note to the sweet florals, or earthy-rooty notes in Reseda.“ Main Synonyms: phenylacetaldehyde dimethyl acetal

ParaCresy lPhenyl Ace ta te CAS No. 101-94-0 Odour (decreasing): Floral-lily-hyacinth-jonquil, animalic-horse, honey. Powerful, diffusive Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known):

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £26 £37 £65 £241 Description and usage notes: This is a very powerful, diffusive material that takes some time to get into solution in ethanol and I recommend using at high dilution. Nicknamed Horse Acetate by me because of the pervasive smell when I’m using it! Despite that animalic quality this is an essential component of narcissus, lily and many other florals that adds great diffusion and sillage to the fragrance. Arctander tells us that it is: “Usually applied at less than 1% in the perfume composition, this ester should be carefully blended with highboiling or powerful odorants in order to achieve a pleasant effect. It performs well in Jasmin, Tuberose, Gardenia, Lily, Hyacinth, Narcissus and other floral and floral-green bases“. Main Synonyms: 1,2-Tolyl phenylacetate.

Patchoul i L ight , Alber t Vie i l l e - New CAS No. 8014-09-3 Odour (decreasing): patchouli, earthy, amber. Diffusive Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known): Albert Vieille

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £20 £27 £52 £191 Description and usage notes: Manufactured in Indonesia by one of the most respected French producers - Albert Vieille - who describe it like this: “Patchouli is a tropical subshrub that thrives in Indonesia's fertile, shady soils, its native land. The legendary fragrance is contained in the broad, velvety leaves running up its stems. The name is a tribute to the imposing, precious foliage: “patchouli“ comes from the Tamil patch, meaning 'green,' and ilai, 'leaf.' The essential oil is produced in the secretory cells of the stems and leaves, with the three youngest leaves having the highest oil content. It is this part of the plant that is harvested and then dried in the shade. The leaves ferment slightly during drying. This process alters the cellular walls of the essential oil glands, which results in better distillation. The 'light' quality is from material distilled in stainless-steel stills and therefore colorless. ... This material has a cosmopolitan charisma, combining a powerful woody note with a humic, earthy character.” This batch is from the 2014/15 harvest. It has more patchouli character than the Ultra Light and contains over 30% patchoulol making it excellent value at this price. Main Synonyms: Pogostemon cablin

Patchoul i Ul tra L ight (65% Patchoulo l) CAS No. 84238-39-1 ; 8014-09-3 Odour (decreasing): patchouli, earthy, amber. Diffusive Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known): Ventos

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £33 £50 £98 £366 Description and usage notes: This form of molecular distilled patchouli contains a full 65% patchoulol (patchouli alcohol) and as a result has a very high impact on the diffusion and sillage of a fragrance witout introducing an overwhelming patchouli character. Very useful in a wide range of fragrances but especially florals, incense and amber types. Main Synonyms: Pogostemon cablin



PEA CAS No. 60-12-8 Odour (decreasing): Floral-rose, fresh, rosewater, honey Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known):

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £8 £8 £13 £39 Description and usage notes: This is one of the most useful synthetics for any perfumer: PEA, first identified in rose, is present in the natural scent of many flowers. Unlike most perfumery materials this one is slightly soluble in water, particularly hot water, which means that when natural rose otto is distilled most of the PEA is lost in the water and does not make it into the oil, so perfumers normally addit back when rose otto is being used - about four times as much as the otto. It has a lovely mild, fresh floral-rose scent that can be easily pushed in the direction of other flowers when used in combination with other materials. Arctander writes fairly extensively about it: “This material enters perfume compositions at the rate of 5-10-20% or sometimes much more. Its low cost, versatility and general acceptability on odor, its excellent stability are factors speaking strongly in favor of this otherwise relatively weak odorant. However, its odor is clearly demonstrated in an experiment with an apparently weak crystalline ftxative/odorant, such as [rose crystals]. With 5% of the crystalline material, Phenylethylalcohol will smell not only much more rosy, it will last much longer, and its 'rough' topnotes are pleasantly subdued, it has 'three dimensions' instead of two. But it is in the 'everyday' perfumery that the subject alcohol is most appreciated. It is almost never 'out of place' in a composition, be it floral, balsamic, Oriental, mossy, herbaceous or 'modem-aldehydic'. It is an inevitable companion to the 'rose alcohols', Citronellol, Geraniol, Nerol, Dimethyloctanol, etc. and it may receive fixation from Guaiacwood oil, Nitromusks, Coumarin and Heliotropine, Rosetone, Resinoids, etc. It blends excellently with the Linalool family, and with all the newer 'Lily’-alcohols, 'Muguet'-alcohols, etc. as well as in Lime and Spice blends.“ Main Synonyms: phenyl ethyl alcohol, rose alcohol phenylethyl alcohol

PEA - Natura l CAS No. 60-12-8 Odour (decreasing): Sweet, floral-rose, fresh, clean Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known): Novorate

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £37 £56 £110 £415 Description and usage notes: Excellent floraliser, present in the natural scent of a huge range of flowers and very easy to use. The natural version is produced by microbial fermentation and is more than 99.9% pure meaning it lacks the metallic note that can spoil the synthetic when used in very delicate fragrances. For when only natural, or only the very best, will do. Main Synonyms: phenyl ethyl alcohol

Pelargene CAS No. 30310-41-9, 68039-40-7, 68039-41-8 Odour (decreasing): Green-leafy, floral-geranium. Powerful. Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known): Givaudan

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £28 £41 £79 £290 Description and usage notes: Useful for adding power to natural geranium and rose as well as being an interesting green modifier in many other fragrance types, particularly Fougere. Description from Givaudan: ”Pelargene has a powerful geranium character, reminiscent of crushed leaves. It adds substantivity and body, particularly to floral fragrances, especially rose and geranium.” Arcadi Boix Camps, writing in 1985, gave this description of Phenirane “a fresh geranium fragrance, more metalic and less rosy-voluptous than phenoxanol, with a more technical aspect characterized by a strong diphenyl oxide nuance.“ Main Synonyms: 2-methyl-4-methylidene-6-phenyloxane, fenyrane, geranium pyran, phenirane, tetrahydromethyl methylene phenyl pyran



Peomosa CAS No. 19819-98-8 Odour (decreasing): Floral-paeony and rose, green, dewy. Diffusive Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known): IFF

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £14 £18 £34 £133 Description and usage notes: A useful middle-to-top note that is primarily floral. Blends very well with Centifolether, Peonile and all rose and geranium products. Description from IFF: ”Natural floral, peony, mimosa, rose, green, earthy, wet, cyclamen.” Arcadi Boix Camps in 1999, writes enthusiastically about this material: “very interesting but not often used is peomosa (2-Methylphenylethyl alcohol). This product could and should be as important as beta-Phenylethyl alcohol because it smells very naturally of a fresh rose petal. I believe it will be used sooner or later in fragrances in large quantities.“ Main Synonyms: 2-Methylphenylethyl alcoho

Peoni l e CAS No. 10461-98-0 Odour (decreasing): Floral-rose and geranium, green-citrus. Substantive and Fixative Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known): Givaudan

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £12 £15 £28 £111 Description and usage notes: Retained as a captive for some years, this is an extremely useful floral fixative that works excellently with almost all floral materials. Description from Givaudan: ”Odor: Floral, Geranium, Grapefruit, Fresh, with its geranium-rosy character, gives interesting combinations in floral, fougère or hesperidian accords. Powerful, relatively non-volatile and very stable in almost all media.” Writing in 1999 Arcadi Boix Camps says it “is an extremely good chemical smelling of geranium, rose and other flowers. It is incredibly effective as a floralizer on powder detergent and soap fragrances and provides a harmony not easily acheived with other chemicals. It remains captive and is missing from most laboratories, but I believe it will come to be used more and more because of its outstanding and impressive properties“. Main Synonyms: 2-cyclohexylidene-2-phenylacetonitrile, peony acetonitrile

Solidifies at lower room temperatures, rich complex floral odour, somewhat similar to Turkish rose but generally regarded as superior. Very special. Main Synonyms:

Phenoxye thy l i sobutyra te CAS No. 103-60-6 Odour (decreasing): Sweet, fruity-apple, floral-rose, honey, pastry Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known):

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £9 £10 £17 £49 Description and usage notes: Fruity, sweet, with green apple and powdery fruit blossom notes and aspects of honey. Described by Arctander as follows: “Sweet-fruity, rosy-floral, slightly honey-like odor of excellent tenacity … This ester has found quite extensive use in perfumery, and it is still surprising to see many perfume laboratories without that material on hand. … its odor type should place it among the most frequently used materials for daily use in fragrances for household products, soaps, detergents, room sprays, etc. where 'volume' is involved. It blends excellently with the Ionones and the 'rose' alcohols, with Terpineol and Linalool, Hydroxycitronellal and the Nitromusks, in Rose, Sweet Pea, Peony, Lilac, Honeysuckle, etc., and it is stable under normal conditions in various functional products.“ Main Synonyms:



Phenylace ta ldehyde CAS No. 122-78-1 Odour (decreasing): Floral-hyacinth, sweet, green-leafy, aldehydic. Powerful Solvent: PEA 50% Manufacturer (if known):

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £16 £21 £39 £129 Description and usage notes: Powerful floral aldehyde with distinctive hyacinth note and green aspects. Very versatile but can be unstable except when stabilised with a primary alcohol such as PEA, which is how it is supplied here. Arctander says it is “widely used in Hyacinth, Lilac, Rose, Lily, Narcisse, Honey, Acacia, Sweet Pea, Cyclamen, Appleblossom (under protest from the author), and countless other fragrance types. In Rose bases it is often accompanied by its Dimethylacetal for emphasis on the earthy-green notes. The normal level of this aldehyde in a perfume oil is 1 to 2%, but it may vary considerably according to type, and to the accompanying materials. The main drawback in the use of this aldehyde is the fact that it is not very stable. Perfumes, made with a conspicuous amount of Phenyl acetaldehyde will, after one to three months of storage, show a very perceptible loss of odor power, and the aldehyde may no longer 'stand out'. The fragrance type changes, and a customer may wonder why his new shipment smells so much 'stronger' than his 4-month-old stock of the same perfume. This is bound to happen in almost any perfume in which Phenylacetaldehyde is a conspicuous component. It is adviseable to use the aldehyde at such (low) concentration that the inevitable change is less perceptible, and also not to keep stock of perfumes in which the aldehyde occurs at relatively high concentration.“ Phenylacetaldehyde can often also be made available at 50% in ethanol on request. Main Synonyms:

Phenyle thy l Ace ta te CAS No. 103-45-7 Odour (decreasing): Sweet, floral-rose and gardenia, fruity-peach, honey, green Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known):

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £9 £9 £15 £38 Description and usage notes: Excellent floral, sweeter, fruitier and more honeyed rose than PEA, they are often used together. Arctander tells us it “is widely used in perfume compositions, from everyday soap and detergent perfumes to fine cosmetic fragrances, room-sprays, deodorants, etc. almost any type of perfume. Its sweetness, versatility and very low cost makes it almost universally applicable. For Rose, Jasmin, Hyacinth, Reseda, Freesia, Peony, Magnolia, Oriental and even citrusy fragrance types, it may be used at concentrations from 1 percent up to 10 or perhaps much higher. “ Main Synonyms: Phenyl ethyl acetate



Phenyle thy l Formate - New CAS No. 104-62-1 Odour (decreasing): Sweet, floral-rose, green-hyacinth, spicy-cinnamon Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known):

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £9 £10 £18 £59 Description and usage notes: One of those older perfumery materials that seems to have gone somewhat out of fashion in favour of more expensive specialities, this is a material that deserves to be rediscovered: immediately pleasant to smell, the primary character is floral, with aspects of rose, hyacinth and chrysanthemum present; Arctander also describes it as having a watercress foliage note. The cinnamic background makes it very useful as part of a cinnamon note in any fragrance where its floral character is appropriate. This is a top-to-middle note material that benefits from combination with longer-lasting floral notes such as phenylethyl salicylate, rose crystals and Peonile. Arctander expresses surprise at how rarely this material appears in fragrance formulas and suggests these uses: “The ester is an excellent modifier in Muguet, Orchid, Lilac, Rose, Narcisse, and, in larger amounts, in Hyacinth. It is interesting to note once more the enormous difference between the Formates and the Acetates while there is not nearly the same type-difference between the Acetates and the Propionates, etc. Generally formates are neglected in perfumery, perhaps partly because of above mentioned problem. But their warm, dry-foliage type floral odor lends very natural and attractive effects to a fragrance.“ The problem he alludes to is that a poor quality formate does not keep well: “One reason for its infrequent use may be that it does not keep well if it has not been prepared in the proper quality in the first place. If traces of water or formic acid were present from the beginning, the material will not only show pungent and unpleasant odor, but it will deteriorate rapidly and increase further in acidity. However, a properly made ester, kept dry and cool, will keep excellently on the perfumer’s shelf, and its odor remains warm, green-herbaceous and floral.“ Main Synonyms: Phenyl ethyl formate



Phenyle thy l Sal i cy la te - New CAS No. 87-22-9 Odour (decreasing): Mild, sweet-balsam, floral-carnation, hyacinth and rose. Fixative Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known):

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £11 £13 £23 £77 Description and usage notes: Another neglected perfumery material that deserves to be rediscovered: this comes as white crystals that dissolve readily in ethanol, it's an excellent fixative for floral compositions and effective blending agent as well. Here's Arctander talking about its uses: “This material is very well known, but not extensively used ... the ester enjoys much popularity from a group of steady users who know the virtues of this versatile material. As a fixative in Lily, Muguet, Lilac, Rose, Carnation, Honey, Clover, etc. it has excellent results on its record, and as a blender for highly 'chemical' perfumes it can do small wonders. However, the title material does appear on the market in various grades, some of which are quite unacceptable, even some with phenolic off-odor. The ester blends particularly well with Cinnamic alcohol, Methylionones, Labdanum, the carbinols, etc. and as an undertone in more refined types of Fougere, it offers interesting possibilities.“ The material offered here is of at least 97% purity and free from off-odours. Main Synonyms: Phenyl ethyl salicylate

Piconia - new CAS No. 23787-90-8 Odour (decreasing): Warm-woody, dry-vetiver, earthy-patchouli, tobacco, amber. Diffusive, tenacious Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known): IFF

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £9 £10 £17 £59 Description and usage notes: Piconia is an extremely versatile material, commonly used as an extender for patchouli and vetiver, but also effective in contributing an ambery quality to fragrances. The material has both top-note and base-note effects and contributes vitality to perfume compositions. Arcadi Boix Camps described this material, in 1978, as “strong fresh and radiant … of immense olfactory value“ and says it is “absolutely necessary in the perfumer's choice of materials“. Main Synonyms: 2,2,7,7-tetramethyltricyclo[6.2.1.01,6]undecan-5-one, Ecotone 101, Isolongifolanone, Isolongifolene ketone, ketone patchouli, Valanone



Pinene a lpha CAS No. 80-56-8 Odour (decreasing): Warm-woody, fresh-pine, resinous Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known):

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £9 £10 £18 £48 Description and usage notes: Woody, piney and turpentine-like, with a slight cooling camphoraceous nuance and a fresh herbal lift. Warm, refreshing. According to Arctander “alpa-Pinene is one of the lowest boiling of all Monoterpenes, and has therefore the most diffusive odor and poorest tenacity. It is also one of the purest commercially available Monoterpenes, the chief impurities being beta-Pinene and Camphene.“ Main Synonyms:

Prenyl Ace ta te CAS No. 1191-16-8 Odour (decreasing): Sweet, fresh-bergamot, fruity-banana, lavender, heliotrope. Very diffusive Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known):

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £10 £11 £19 £72 Description and usage notes: This strongly fruity, fresh ester is very useful in providing natural top-note support to lavender accords as well as the more obvious application in fruity notes such as apple, bergamot, peach, mango and banana. It is less harsh and longer lasting than Amyl Acetate. Arctander tells us that “this material was made commercially available in 1966 at a time when Lavandin oil was scarce and expensive. Any material that could help improve an artificial Lavandin or Lavender was of immediate interest. However, this material has found uses far beyond Lavandin, Lavender and Bergamot ... If increased use result in volume production, one may justly assume that this material can be produced at a much more attractive price and thus come into entirely new fields of perfumery application.“ Main Synonyms:

Propiophenone CAS No. 93-55-0 Odour (decreasing): Floral-lilac and hawthorne, sweet, fruity-cherry. Powerful Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known):

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £11 £13 £24 £84 Description and usage notes: Limited availability: please email prior to purchasing this matieral. Deceptively strong material of great diffusiveness and power. Arctander discusses both its uses and limitations: “has found some use in perfume compositions for its powerful, herbaceous-floral effect, and for an overall character less pungent and less chemical than Acetophenone. Its odor has some similarity to that of Ethylbenzoate, and it can be used in discrete amounts in Lilac, higher proportions in Hawthorne, Wistaria, Fougere, etc. It blends well with Cananga, Amylsalicylate, Anisaldehyde, Lavandin oil, etc. and it is relatively inexpensive. It has that feature in common with Acetophenone, that it may produce truly pleasant olfactory effect in the hands of a skilled and experienced artist-perfumer, while it too often comes out rather 'loud' of a compound created with less skill.“ Main Synonyms:

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £13 £16 £29 £101 Description and usage notes: Can be used in perfumes only in traces to add realism to gourmand and especially seashore types. The odour isn't, in the opinion of this perfumer, as repelent or as powerful as the widely circulated descriptions would suggest. As such we are offering pyridine at 0.01% or 1% - please indicate your preferred dilution - prices are the same for each. The former is really quite pleasant to deal with, the latter has a decidedly unpleasant character dominated by the fishy aspect. Main Synonyms:

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £10 £11 £19 £70 Description and usage notes: Powerful and very jammy, this crystalline solid has a lovel raspberry-jam, deep character that can be easily pushed in the direction of other fruits when used in combination with other materials. It also works well as a sweetening agent. Arctander says: “This ketone is used in perfume compositions, particularly in Jasmin, Gardenia, Tuberose, etc. where floral notes need fruity undertones, or where fruity notes need fixation and supporting delicate sweetness. One known Jasmin speciality contains a considerable proportion of this material in its ‘fruit- preserve-like’ undertones and terminal notes.“ Main Synonyms: 4-(4-hydroxyphenyl)butan-2-one, Frambinone

Arcadi Boix Camps, writing in 1985 tells us that it is “... another important and relatively unknown chemical of extraordinary fragrance between narcissus, reseda, hyacinth and magnolia. It is a minor ingredient in the perfume Alliage, another one of those giants in the world of perfumery that brings together some green notes with odors of incense, costus and ambergris as well as some spicy notes with a lightly woody, Helional, musky galaxolide, hexadecanolide background.“ Main Synonyms: 2-(cyclohexylmethyl)-4,4,6-trimethyl-1,3-dioxane, phenyl acetaldehyde hexylene glycol cyclic acetal, reseda acetal, reseda tone

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £13 £16 £29 £109 Description and usage notes: An excellent, delicate, modern, alicyclic musk having some of the character of both polycyclic and aromatic musks. Easy to use – it’s a mobile liquid at room temperature. Can be used to replace Galaxolide on a like-for-like basis and has the advantage that, as well as being much more liquid, it’s fully biodegradable. Firmenich description: “Odor: Very delicate musky note, less fruity and less Ambrette than Helvetolide® with more tenacity and more volume on the dry down. Use: This alicyclic topnote musk is easily perceived by all users. It has a PCM-like character with berry topnotes and ambrette like nuances. It can be used as a PCM replacer and is stable in most applications. Resembles the closest musk to Galaxolide® in character.“ Arcadi Boix Camps, writing in 2004, says of Romandolide: “This material is clean, heavy, long-lasting, and similar to Galaxolide in many respects - though it is less fruity and more camphoraceous. ... Although more diffusive than macrocyclic and polycyclic musks, the material performs in a way quite similar to these musk chemicals. Romandolide is just now finding use in perfumes including Absolu de Rochas and Angel Schlesser for men.“ Main Synonyms: acetic acid, (1-oxopropoxy)-1-(3,3-dimethylcyclohexyl) ethyl ester

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £81 £129 £256 £972 Description and usage notes: An unusual and rarely offered, earthy, yet fresh ingredient that gives excellent support to vetiver notes as well as oriental, marine and forest-floor type compositions. Arcadi Boix Camps describes it as “very rooty as its name states and is beautiful when combined with [other materials with a damp or earthy note] because the natural smell of wet earth is quite complex and interesting ... when walking with friends or riding our horses on the Mediterranean mountains close to the sea, everybody loves this natural smell that when properly dosed can create new widely sought accords.“ Main Synonyms: patchouli cyclohexanol

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £12 £15 £28 £95 Description and usage notes: A dewy-rose material of great power with a distinctly aldehydic character that gives near linear effect. Arctander tells us that it was, from the late 1950s, widely used in soap perfumes but that “smaller amounts find their way into a multitude of floral and refreshing, sweet fragrance types, and in modem detergent fragrances as well. Although basically a Rose material, it is not confined to typically rosy odors, in fact, it can be used as a 'lifting’ material in conjunction with iso-Butylquinoline and lonones, and it gives interesting effects with Styrax materials.“ Main Synonyms: 9-decen-1-ol, Trepanol

Rose Crys ta l s CAS No. 90-17-5 Odour (decreasing): Mild, floral-rose, balsamic Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known):

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £10 £11 £19 £81 Description and usage notes: The pure crystals barely smell at all and are not easy to dissolve in cold ethanol, however they dissolve readily in most perfume oils. Arctander says that it “has found wide application in perfume compositions as a fixative in Rose and Geranium compounds, soap fragrances, powder perfumes, etc. because of its excellent stability and fixative effect. Its odor is better understood upon evaluation of Phenylethylalcohol with and without 5% of this material. There are still perfumers who find the title ester odorless or without any perfumery value, and it is sometimes because the material has been judged too hastily without a compounding experiment. Effective level is perhaps higher than 2%, but concentrations higher than 4% are rarely seen, although the material is inexpensive and freely available. The perfumer is simply satisfied with the effect, quite perceptible at that low level. It is one of the very few chlorinated chemicals in common use in perfumes, and it has been popular ever since its discovery late in the 19th century.“ Main Synonyms: Trichloro methyl phenyl carbinyl acetate, rose acetate

From Givaudan: “Rose Givco 217 is a rich, warm, economical rose fragrance with all the fresh, natural character of a rose blossom. Its olfactive structure resembles that of natural Turkish rose oil. This rose note blends well in all types of compositions, enriching & underlining the floral bouquet character of the fragrance. It performs extremely well in most perfume types, particularly in agarbatti, & is very long-lasting.“ Main Synonyms:

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £12 £15 £28 £108 Description and usage notes: An unusual and powerful component of rose oil that is also found in lychees and Gewurtztraminer wine. Arctander describes it as “Penetrating and very diffusive, gassy-green or “hard' green, floral odor of poor tenacity. The resemblance to Geranium appears only upon dilution of the Rose oxide, and best in a composition. The diluted material has also a Rose-like character.“ Main Synonyms:



Rosyrane Super CAS No. 60335-71-9 Odour (decreasing): Floral-rose and muguet, green-geranium and hyacinth. Diffusive and powerful Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known): Givaudan

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £9 £9 £15 £39 Description and usage notes: A powerful rose-floral material best used in small doses, though larger amounts can be effective in air-care applications. Description from Givaudan: “Odor: Floral, Rosy, Geranium, Green. Use: Rosyrane Super has an intense, diffusive rose character with green, geranium and metallic notes. It is particularly suited to be the heart of a very diffusive rose or geranium complex especially in air fresheners.“ Arcadi Boix Camps writing about Rosyrane in 1999 says it “imparts a lively smell that falls between fresh aspects of rose, hyacinth and lily of the valley. This little known chemical is wonderful for replacing the vulgarity of diphenyl oxide and other products of the family. Rosyrane blends very well with Triplal, isobutylquinolene, rose oxide and sandalwood chemicals. I find that this chemical is very stable“ Main Synonyms: 4-methyl-2-phenyl-3,6-dihydro-2H-pyran, floral pyran

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £23 £32 £61 £199 Description and usage notes: An exceptionally useful modern spicy-leathery material of great versatility. Description from Givaudan: ”Safraleine has a very unique warm and vibrant character offering a new alternative to existing spicy odorants. Safraleine exhibits warm, powerful, leathery and tobacco facets but its complexity also reveals characteristics of spices reminiscent of natural saffron, enriched by rose ketone-like floral aspects.” In 2003, Arcadi Boix Camps said of this material: “Here Givaudan discovered a great master chemical imparting subtleness, delicacy, refinement, intricacy, velvetiness and great class wherever it is used. ... The accords of Safraleine are simply unique with tobacco chemicals like Tabanone or tetramethyl naphtalenone, with the rose ketones ... Safraleine can be twisted towards spiciness or floral woody accords but also toward aquatic effects ...“ Main Synonyms:

Sandalore CAS No. 65113-99-7 Odour (decreasing): Sandalwood, warm, sweet Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known):

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £12 £15 £28 £99 Description and usage notes: Sandalore was originally developed by Givaudan, though the offering here is a generic version it remains a powerful, diffusive and extremely tenacious product, imparts a rich, warm, natural sandalwood character to perfumes, as well as volume and substantivity. Together with Ebanol, and other sandalwood odourants it serves as an effective sandalwood replacement. Arcadi Boix Camps said of it in 1985 “It has a sweet, warm , strong, woody, santalaceous odor, which is immediately perceived on a blotter, and has a top note power about 50% greater than the essential oil of sandalwood, though it doesn't last as long.“ Main Synonyms: 3-methyl-5-(2,2,3-trimethyl-1-cyclopent-3-enyl)pentan-2-ol, Sandal pentanol



Sande la CAS No. 70955-71-4 Odour (decreasing): Sandalwood, clean, sweet, woody. Mild, persistent Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known):

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £9 £9 £15 £39 Description and usage notes: A classical sandalwood note that can be used in all fragrance types, very useful in combination with some of the more expensive sandalwood replacers. This is one of the oldest synthetic sandalwood materials and most offerings sold under this name consist of a mixture of related isomers. The odour impact is low but persistence extremely high: it isn't recommended as a sandalwood replacer but is effective in combination with the more powerful synthetics and with the natural essential oil. Main Synonyms: 3-[5,5,6-Trimethylbicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-yl]cyclohexan- 1-ol, m-iso camphylcyclohexanol, meta-(iso camphyl-5) cyclohexanol

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £9 £10 £17 £47 Description and usage notes: The same molecule as Bacdanol but this is the laevo isomer. According to Arcadi Boix Camps Sanjinol “is similar but more beautiful, more radiant, posessing a more natural sandalwood character. It is also more diffusive“. Description from IFF: “Natural sandalwood-like odor. Good diffusion and substantivity“. Both Bacdanol and Sanjinol have a slight rose character and give excellent floral support in a blend. Main Synonyms: Dartanol, Levosandol

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £9 £9 £15 £39 Description and usage notes: This is has more powerful and diffusive odour than natural Sandalwood. Excellent to support the natural or as part of a sandalwood accord, though I don't recommend using it alone. Where this material really comes into its own is as a fixative - 0.5-5% of the concentrate will give effective fixation to most blends. From IFF: “Sandalwood, woody, milky, creamy. To give increased substantivity and sandalwood character to fragrances.“ Main Synonyms: (E)-2-methyl-4-(2,2,3-trimethyl-1-cyclopent-3-enyl)but-2-en-1-ol, sandal butenol, Sandalmysore core

Description from IFF: musk, animal, leather. Don't underestimate how different the odour of this material is from Galaxolide: this is an animalic musk with a much 'dirtier' conotation. Main Synonyms:



Silv ia l CAS No. 6658-48-6 Odour (decreasing): Floral-muguet, fresh-marine, aldehydic, green, balsamic Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known): Givaudan

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £8 £8 £13 £29 Description and usage notes: Very fresh, marine quality as well as the floral, lily-of-the-valley note. Description from Givaudan: ”Powerful, Floral, Muguet, Fresh. Silvial is a powerful, vibrant muguet ingredient with a slight citrus undertone and a fresh, aldehydic touch that is used in perfumery in the same way as related muguet products.” Arctander thought the material had potential for wider use: “The title aldehyde, commercially available for some years, has some of the advantages of Cyclamen aldehyde, and some of those of Lilial (Bucinal), its tertiary-Butyl-isomer. It is undoubtedly more versatile than Cyclamen aldehyde, and the perfumer can enjoy using much higher concentrations of this aldehyde, without producing overly green-vegetable notes, etc.“ he goes on “It blends very well with Lilac materials, Muguet (carbinols and rose-alcohols), Styrax and Melhylionones, and with Amylcinnamic aldehyde. It is sufficiently stable in soap, and it seems to be more stable in storage than Cyclamen aldehyde.“ Writing much later Arcadi Boix Camps suggests that “Although many consider Silvial (Givaudan) a pure muguet ingredient, I disagree. It is by far less floral than Lilial and more citrusy. The material is like a mixture of Lilial, cyclamen aldehyde and trans-4-decenal“ he goes on to recommend many accords that can be “made with this beautiful chemical“. Main Synonyms: 2-methyl-3-[4-(2-methylpropyl)phenyl]propanal, cyclamen homoaldehyde, Homocyclamen aldehyde, Rhodial



Skato le CAS No. 83-34-1 Odour (decreasing): Animalic, warm, sweet, over-ripe fruit. Very powerful and extremely long-lasting Solvent: Ethanol (denat) 1% Manufacturer (if known):

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £21 £29 £55 £202 Description and usage notes: At this dilution Skatole has a similar profile to Indole and can be used in similar contexts. Skatole is a useful alternative or addition to indole and is used in fragrances of animalic and white flower types in a similar way. Skatole can be particularly helpful when creating flower-types where the natural material contians a very high amount of indole that cannot be replicatied using the synthetic product due to the 'mothballs' note that can appear: adding a small amount of skatole can create a more powerful indolic quality without producing that synthetic off-note. It can also be used to add realism to fruity accords, though only in the smallest of traces. It is offered here as a 1% solution in ethanol since the pure solid material requires extremely careful handling to avoid contamination of people, places and other perfumery materials. Arctander describes some of the uses of this material: “Skatole is used in perfume compositions and in artificial Civet bases. Minute traces of this material may introduce just that natural note of 'overmature flower' or 'forest-floor' or other natural decomposition matter, which can be not only tolerable to a fragrance, but sometimes make it much more attractive.“ He goes on to say that, at the time of his writing in the late 1960s “Many perfumers have never used Skatole, and others have had poor results with it. It takes considerable patience to study the full and final effect of a certain amount of Skatole in a fragrance. The material seems to “grow“ after some time of ageing, and it produces more obnoxious odors with certain materials than with others. Skatole gives interesting effects with Sandalwood materials.” Main Synonyms: 3-methylindole, beta-methylindole, methyl indole



Spiroga lbanone CAS No. 224031-70-3 Odour (decreasing): Green-galbanum, fruity-pineapple Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known): Givaudan

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £49 £76 £149 £569 Description and usage notes: Very powerful material, manufactured by Givaudan, normally used in high dilution. From Givaudan: “Odor: Green, Galbanum, Fruity, Pineapple, Powerful. Use: a powerful green galbanum note, accompanied by fruit facets. As such, Spirogalbanone has the same olfactive profile as classical green galbanum molecules but it differentiates itself thanks to its outstanding substantivity. In addition to its fresh green galbanum volume, its excellent stability allows for use in all applications, especially in those where performance and substantivity are sought.“ Can also supply it at 10% in IPM - 100ml = £35, 500g = £99. Main Synonyms: 1-(spiro[4.5]dec-7-en-7-yl)pent-4-en-1-one

Strawberry Furanone CAS No. 3658-77-3 Odour (decreasing): Sweet, candy-floss, caramel, strawberry, cooked pineapple, sugar Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known):

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £121 £196 £389 £1,481 Description and usage notes: Not much like strawberries on it’s own but combined with suitable fruity esters it brings out the sweet melting scent of strawberries. Present in a wide range of natural scents from roasted meat to raspberries, pineapple juice and lychees this is a versatile ingredient, that can be used as a sweetening agent in virtually any fragrance as well as providing the sweet background to fruity notes. When Arctander was writing the was a very new material, not yet in widespread use, he describes it as “Intensely caramellic-fruity, ‘-jam-like' odor with some resemblance to the odor of Palatone (Maltol). The odor is also reminiscent of that of 'cooked Pineapple'.“ and goes on to suggest that it is likely to go on to become very useful. Main Synonyms: 2,5-Dimethyl-4-Hydroxy-3(2H)-Furanone, 4-hydroxy-2,5-dimethylfuran-3-one, Furaneol, Furanone, Furonol, Walnut Furanone



Stemone CAS No. 22457-23-4 Odour (decreasing): Green-leafy, galbanum, fig, fresh, natural. Powerful Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known): Givaudan

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £10 £11 £19 £57 Description and usage notes: This is an extremely useful green note, having the effect of freshly crushed stems: traces can give a freshening, lifting effect; larger amounts (0.5 - 1%) will give a distinctive green note that may become metalic depending on what it's blended with. Description from Givaudan: ”Green, Natural, Leafy, Fresh, Powerful. Imparts a natural and fresh nuance to fragrance notes such as lily-of-the-valley, narcissus, mandarin, fig leaves, grapefruit, black currant and tomato. It is an excellent modifier that strengthens and modernises green notes.” Arcadi Boix Camps describes the scent of this material as “somewhere between galbanum and fig leaves absolute“. Main Synonyms: greenone, heptoxime, leafy oxime, N-(5-methylheptan-3-ylidene)hydroxylamine, vertone

Styra l ly l Ace ta te CAS No. 93-92-5, 1335-75-7 Odour (decreasing): Green-leafy, gardenia, rhubarb, metalic, musty Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known):

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £9 £10 £18 £61 Description and usage notes: One of the classic metalic-green notes that is very widely used despite smelling fairly unapealing to most people when pure. Arctander gives some very useful clues on how best to use it: “t is conventionally classified as a Gardenia-green material, but its odor is typical only of certain stages of maturity of the Gardenia flower, and only of certain species. However, the ester finds use in numerous fragrance types,mostly those including fruity and green notes, and it plays an important role in top-note complexes including Oakmoss, Galbanum, Allyl ionone, Citrus oils, etc. In spite of its apparent harshness, it can be applied at comparatively high concentration, often exceeding 2 or 3%. If Benzylacetate and Citrus oils are present, the level of the title ester can be still higher. Care should be taken in evaluating the effect of this material too quickly, It will characteristically 'mellow-in' the perfume composition very perceptibly after 24 hours, often more in several days or so. Smaller amounts are used in Lilac, Hyacinth, Tuberose, Muguet, etc.“ Main Synonyms: Gardenol

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £9 £9 £15 £42 Description and usage notes: Sylvamber is another material in the Isocyclemone E, Iso E Super, Timbersilk family of products although produced by a different manufacturer. Sylvamber has the highest proportion of the gamma isomer of this type of product on the market, typically 22% (compared to around 8% in Iso E Super and just under 15% in Timbersilk). This results in a superbly diffusive, high-impact product with more of the amber and less of the woody character associated with Iso E Super and a cleaner odour profile than Timbersilk. Very rarely offered in amounts under 20Kg. Usually used alongside a lower imact product from the same family as a booster but can also be used alone to lend an exceptionally diffusive and full character to almost any kind of fragrance.

As a major component in delicate floral fragrance types, Muguet, Lily, Lilac, Mimosa, variations of Rose and Jasmin, etc. it has repeatedly confirmed its pleasant effects and good stability. It is also used in Lavender compositions, Chypres, Fougeres, etc. as a modifier/blender, and its mild odor makes it almost universally applicable.“ Main Synonyms: 3,7-dimethyloctan-3-ol, linalool tetrahydride, tetra hydro linalool

Vani l la Abso lu te CAS No. 8024-06-4 Odour (decreasing): Balsamic, vanilla-beans, vanillin. Extremely tenacious Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known):

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £117 £190 £377 £1,773 Description and usage notes: Very powerful and beautiful natural vanilla absolute: an exceptionally beautiful product of great power and tenacity. Used in traces to enrich and sweeten virtually any fragrance type but vital in most gourmands.

Vani l l in CAS No. 121-33-5 Odour (decreasing): Sweet-vanilla, creamy-chocolate Solvent: -none- 100% Manufacturer (if known):

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £9 £10 £17 £35 Description and usage notes: This chemical is the key component of the natural vanilla odour and is characteristic of vanilla based scents and flavours. In this form it is one of the most widely used of all perfumery materials, used in all types of fragrance in small doses. Vanillin comes as white to cream coloured crystals, that dissolve readily at low doses in most perfumery materials and in ethanol. High doses can become sickly-sweet and amounts above 8% of the perfume concentrate are rarely used. It has some useful fixative qualities as well, particularly with floral materials. Arctander writes very extensively about vanillin and some extracts are presented here: “Among the more common perfume materials, Vanillin is one of the most tenacious odors known.“; “Its intense sweetness is utilized in industrial masking odors and in high-cost luxury perfumes, and it can be used in almost any type of fragrance, from woody or herbaceous to Oriental or floral.“ He also points out that because vanillin is such a high volume product it is chemically one of the purest materials used in perfumery. This together with improvements in base products mean that the use of low doses of vanillin in fragrances for functional products such as white soaps and creams is no-longer the hazard it once was, though discolouration can still occur where higher amounts are involved. Main Synonyms: 4-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzaldehyde

Description from Givaudan: “Velvione is an exceptional product: a powdery macrocyclic musk that is powerful, highly substantive and stable, as well as biodegradable. Velvione has a nitro-musk aspect that is not found either in other commonly used macrocyclic musks, nor in polycyclic musks. Velvione is excellent in all applications, including fine fragrance, where it adds a powdery volume and musky softness.“ Main Synonyms: ambretone, (5Z)-cyclohexadec-5-en-1-one, musk amberol

Veratraldehyde comes as waxy, white to cream coloured powder or flakes, Can form part of the replacement for heliotropine in any formula calling for it, but something like acetanisole will be needed as well. It is otherwise useful as a complexing agent alongside vanillin or ethyl vanillin and as a fixative for floral, gourmand and other styles of fragrance. Arctander suggests that “A pure grade of Veratraldehyde is an excellent perfume material with more warmth and depth than Vanillin, and excellent effect in 'Oriental' type fragrances, woody-musky bases, etc. It is also an interesting variation of - or companion to – Anisaldehyde.“ Main Synonyms: 3,4-Dimethoxybenzaldehyde, Protocatechualdehyde dimethylether, Methyl vanillin, 'Methyl protechin', Vanillin methyl ether, 3,4-Dimethoxy benzenecarbonal.

Produced from vetiver oil from Java. Arctander speaks very highly of this material: “The beauty of the odor is only fully appreciated when the material is incorporated in a suitable perfume. The peculiar dry-sweet note does not appear with a woody tone, but it gives fresh lift, yet outstanding tenacity and warmth to a fragrance. Although this ester can be used in almost any type of perfume, it has its most attractive effect in Chypres, modem aldehydic perfumes. compositions with Ionones, Opopanax, Olibanum, Orris, etc. and it is nearly perfect for powder perfumes.

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £122 £197 £392 Description and usage notes: Extremely powerful and beautiful natural green note with floral aspects that is one of my all time favourite materials. Arctander tells us it “is used extensively in perfumery where its tremendous diffusion and delicate naturalness is obtainable at very low concentrations of the absolute in a perfume or base. In certain floral bases, eg hyacinth, muguet, reseda, violet and in high-class chypres, in aldehydic-woody fragrances and in many fantasy types, it lends an unsurpassed elegance when skilfully used.“ Main Synonyms: Viola odourata

30ml 50ml 100ml 500g Prices £9 £10 £17 £34 Description and usage notes: A very effective, tenacious, macrocyclic musk.

Extremely good value at this price and deserves wider usage. Main Synonyms: ethylene dodecanoate
