Short profile
Wintergreen dominates the odour, accompanied by sweetness and medicinal, woody shading. The supplier places it in the top-note category, with strength rated 6/10 and blend impact 7/10. At very low concentrations, a softer floral aspect becomes apparent, suggesting tea rose and sweet ylang-ylang. Persistence on a smelling strip is reported to exceed four hours, although no separate heart or dry-down profile is provided.
Effect in a formula
Small additions introduce wintergreen or medicinal inflections and give woody and oriental bases greater olfactory detail. It can freshen woody compositions, while very low concentrations bring a warm floral nuance to floral structures. Warmth is also identified as a useful contribution in masculine fragrances.
Use and dosage
The supplier gives 0.25% of the fragrance concentrate as an average use level. Small additions are described for wintergreen and medicinal effects; much lower, unquantified concentrations reveal floral nuances. This is formulation guidance, not an IFRA limit.
