Effect in a formula

In rose compositions, Givescone adds fruit and spice depth and can serve as a substantial accord component rather than only an accent. It connects floral material with carnation and spice themes, while introducing warm fruit character into chypre and fougère compositions. Its reciprocal affinity with fruit, rose and wood makes it useful for adding fruitiness to rose accords or a rosy inflection to woody structures.

Use and dosage

The supplier gives 0.5–3% of the fragrance concentrate as a usual formulation range, with levels up to 10% also indicated. Trace additions can already contribute character, whereas larger proportions allow Givescone to become a principal component of a rose accord. These are creative use recommendations, not an IFRA limit.

No confirmed manufacturer use level for this exact product.

Behaviour and performance

Tenacity
The supplier reports 20 hours of blotter substantivity, attributing the figure to TGSC. Evaluation concentration and other test conditions are not provided.

Diffusion, tenacity and note impact are not combined into a single performance score.

Dissolving and diluting

Solvents
Ethanol, DPG and IPM are reported to dissolve the material readily, producing clear solutions. The page provides no quantitative solubility limits.
Working dilution
Prepare a 1% stock for formulation work and a 0.1% dilution for smelling. Ethanol is the page's primary dilution solvent; DPG and IPM are also listed as suitable solvents.
Appearance
Liquid, ranging from colourless to a faint yellow tint.
Practical tip: Assess Givescone within a rose, carnation, aldehydic, chypre or fougère trial as well as in isolation to judge its contribution in context. Use a dedicated pipette and keep the material in cool storage protected from light.
