A warm, spicy-balsamic material combining the clove-like character of eugenol with a softer, sweeter floral-cinnamic facet. Less pungent and sharper than pure eugenol, with a rounded, resinous depth that persists on the blotter.AI · claude-opus-4-7

Appearance

White or creamy-white crystals or crystalline mass.

Odor

Very mild, spicy-balsamic odor. It is claimed that when this chemical is absolutely pure, it has no perceptible odor.

Uses in perfumery

Could find some use as a fixative, but can probably not compete with the common, lower-cost fixatives of related chemical composition and similar odor type and fixative effect.

Production

Produced from Eugenol sodium plus Cinnamyl chloride.
