Description

Celerone, commonly known as Celery Ketone, is a distinctive green and herbal aroma chemical with a characteristic celery-like odor. Its profile combines fresh green, herbal, spicy, earthy and slightly vegetable facets, making it valuable for creating naturalistic green effects in fragrance compositions.

In perfumery, Celerone is primarily used as a green and aromatic modifier. It can introduce a crisp, vegetal character and is particularly useful when creating green, herbal, spicy and fresh accords.

Because of its distinctive character, it is generally used to add realism and complexity rather than as a dominant fragrance note. Small amounts can bring a natural green dimension to compositions and help support herbal and aromatic materials.

Perfumers' Tip

Celerone is a powerful green modifier, so it is best used carefully and evaluated in dilution. Small amounts can give a composition a realistic fresh vegetal and celery-like lift. Combine it with Stemone and green leaf materials for a natural green accord, or pair it with citrus and herbs for a crisp aromatic composition.
