Cis-Jasmone is a synthetic aroma chemical with the CAS number 488-10-8, known for its jasmine-like scent profile. It is often utilized in perfumery to impart floral nuances, particularly in compositions that aim to replicate or enhance the characteristics of natural jasmine. This compound can be found in a variety of fragrance types, including floral, oriental, and chypre accords, where it contributes to the overall complexity and depth of the scent. In formulations, cis-Jasmone typically serves as a middle note, blending well with other floral and fruity ingredients. While it is valued for its olfactory properties, perfumers should be aware of any safety and regulatory considerations associated with its use. As with many synthetic aroma chemicals, it is advisable to consult the latest IFRA guidelines to ensure compliance with any restrictions or recommendations regarding its concentration in finished products. Overall, cis-Jasmone is a versatile ingredient that can enhance the floral aspects of a fragrance while providing a stable and consistent scent profile. — AI-generated summary, 2026-09-02.

Pale yellowish or pale straw-colored oily liquid.
Almost insoluble in water, soluble in alcohol and oils.
Diffusive, warm-spicy, somewhat fruity, but in dilution more floral odor of good tenacity.
Its flavor power is even greater. Concentrations of about 1 ppm have perceptible effect in many fruit flavors, while naturally, concentrations in Mint flavors are higher.
Its beauty is truly demonstrated in dilutions below one percent, or in modest amounts in a perfume composition. Recent improvements in the synthetic manufacture of cis-Jasmone have increased the possibilities for its use. It is no longer restricted to being a component of fine Jasmin bases and artificial Jasmin absolute, but it may find its way into numerous floral fragrance types and many non-floral ones.
Traces, often mere fractions of one percent in a perfume oil may introduce just that wanted warmth and deep floral note almost unobtainable with other chemicals.
Produced from (many methods) e. g. from cis-3-Hexenol via cis-4-Heptenoic acid.
