A softer, more diffuse take on anisaldehyde — sweet anisic-floral character reminiscent of hawthorn and mimosa, with a powdery balsamic undertone. Less sharp and more rounded than anisaldehyde itself, with a subtle creamy floral quality that persists into the drydown.AI · claude-opus-4-7

Appearance

Colorless liquid

Odor

Herbal-green, somewhat floral odor, suggestive of Lilac (‘Lilac-green’), Hyacinth, Appleblossom, etc.

Uses in perfumery

Probably of very limited interest to the perfumer. The odor is weaker than that of the parent aldehyde, and quite different of type.

Uses in flavor

Probably not used in flavors.

Production

Produced from Anisaldehyde and Methyl alcohol.
