Description

Buccoxime is a powerful aroma chemical with a distinctive fresh, fruity, green and cassis-like character, closely associated with the aromatic profile of buchu leaves. It combines a natural green impression with blackcurrant-like and slightly herbal facets, making it a useful material for adding freshness and complexity to fragrance compositions. (Olfactorian)

In perfumery, Buccoxime is particularly useful for creating green, fruity, cassis, buchu and modern floral effects. It can add a crisp natural quality to citrus and floral accords while also helping bridge fresh heart notes with woody and deeper base materials. Symrise describes Buccoxime as having fruity, cassis, buchu-leaf and green characteristics and notes its use in perfumery compositions. (SpecialChem)

Buccoxime is a high-impact material, so it is best evaluated from a dilution. Its strong green-fruity character can be especially effective in modern fresh, green chypre, fruity-floral and aromatic compositions. PerfumersWorld lists it with high relative odor impact and describes applications including modern fruity, floral-oriental, green and chypre fragrances. (PerfumersWorld)

Perfumers' Tip

Buccoxime works particularly well when you need a sharp, natural green-fruity lift with cassis and buchu nuances. Start from a dilute solution because its odor impact is high.

For a fresh fruity accord, combine it with citrus oils, cassis materials and Hedione. For a greener, more sophisticated composition, try it with violet leaf, galbanum, vetiver and patchouli.
