Description

Anisic Alcohol, commonly known as Anisyl Alcohol, is a versatile sweet floral aroma chemical with a soft, warm and slightly powdery character. Its odor profile features anisic, floral, balsamic and vanilla-like nuances, making it useful for adding sweetness and smoothness to fragrance compositions.

In perfumery, Anisyl Alcohol is commonly used as a floral modifier and sweetening ingredient. It can contribute a soft, elegant character to floral accords and works particularly well in compositions featuring jasmine, lilac, muguet and other delicate floral notes.

Its warm and slightly balsamic character also makes it useful for oriental and powdery compositions. It can help connect floral heart notes with sweeter base materials, creating a smoother and more rounded fragrance structure.
