How it behaves

Olfactory profile

Family

Note tendency

Descriptors
floralrose

A fresh, green-fruity floral note with a lift reminiscent of dimethyl phenylethyl carbinol (dimethyl benzyl carbinol) but with an added estery, slightly tart edge from the formate group. Reads as a leafy, watery-tropical facet — think green rose petals, hyacinth stem, and a whisper of unripe fruit — used to add naturalness and airiness to florals.AI · claude-opus-4-7
