Elemol ex Elemi, with the CAS number 639-99-6, is an isolate derived from the Elemi tree, known for its fresh, citrusy, and slightly woody aroma. In perfumery, it is often used to impart a bright, uplifting character to compositions, making it suitable for both floral and citrus accords. Elemol can serve as a middle note, providing a smooth transition between top and base notes, and is valued for its ability to enhance the overall freshness of a fragrance. It is commonly found in formulations aimed at evoking a sense of cleanliness and vitality. Safety-wise, Elemol is generally considered to have a low toxicity profile, but as with many fragrance materials, it is important to be aware of potential sensitization issues. While specific regulatory restrictions may vary, it is advisable to consult the latest IFRA guidelines to ensure compliance, as the use of isolates can be subject to varying restrictions based on concentration and application. — AI-generated summary, 2026-09-02.
