A Schiff base of citronellal and methyl anthranilate — warm, sweet floral character reminiscent of orange blossom and neroli with a soft powdery, slightly waxy undertone. Rounder and less green than free citronellal, with the grape-like anthranilate facet muted into a creamy floral fixative. Long-lasting and diffusive, it rounds and lifts white-floral and cologne accords.AI · claude-opus-4-7

Very viscous pale amber, dark amber or brownish-amber colored liquid (pale when freshly prepared).
Insoluble in water, soluble in alcohol and oils, almost insoluble in propylene glycol.
Very tenacious, sweet-floral, orange-pecan and orange-blossom complex odor. Fresher than the classic 'H.M.A.' it does not have the honeysuckle sweetness of that material, while it presents more orange-rind notes.
Produced by condensation of equal mols. of citronellal and methyl anthranilate.
