Tricholomic acid is primarily known as a taste-active amino acid isolated from Tricholoma muscarium mushrooms, contributing umami/savory character rather than a conventional airborne fragrance note. In isolation it has very little volatile odor — any perceived smell is faint, slightly earthy and broth-like, reminiscent of dried mushroom or savory stock.AI · claude-opus-4-7
