Short profile
This ester displays an airy, fresh floral tea rose signature with distinctive fruitiness and delicate balsamic warmth. Lighter and significantly more transparent than standard rose alcohols, it conveys crisp morning petals accented with geranium, subtle citrus facets, and a touch of watery greenness. It develops smoothly from the opening into the floral heart, offering a rounded honeyed sweetness without heavy animalic baggage.
Effect in a formula
Acting from top notes through the core, it lends luminous transparency, fruit nuance, and honeyed softness without adding heaviness or greasy tones. It serves as an effective harmonizer between primary rose alcohols and damascone accents, performing exceptionally well across rose, peony, geranium, and delicate fresh floral bouquets.
Use and dosage
Typically dosed between 0.5% and 2% in the fragrance concentrate, it can be extended up to roughly 3%, or incorporated in specialized accords between 1% and 10%.
