Description

Cinnamic Alcohol is a classic perfumery material with a warm, sweet, balsamic and gently floral character. It is especially valued for its soft cinnamic nuance, which can add richness and warmth to fragrance compositions without dominating the overall accord. Its profile works particularly well in floral, oriental, balsamic, amber and warm woody fragrances.

Perfumers use Cinnamic Alcohol to provide body and depth while supporting floral and sweet accords. It can help bridge lighter floral notes with deeper balsamic and woody materials, making it useful in both traditional and modern fragrance construction. It is also commonly encountered in fragrance applications such as soaps, cosmetics and other scented products.

Perfumers' Tip

Use Cinnamic Alcohol to add warmth and softness to floral and balsamic accords. Start at a low level and increase gradually, especially when combining it with other sweet, spicy or cinnamic materials, as it can quickly contribute significant warmth and character.
