Description

Dihydro Eugenol is a warm, spicy and woody aroma chemical related to the eugenol family. It has a smooth, sweet-spicy character with clove-like, balsamic and slightly phenolic nuances. Compared with sharper spicy materials, its profile can provide a softer and more rounded interpretation of the warm clove-carnation character.

In perfumery, Dihydro Eugenol is useful for developing spicy, floral, woody and oriental compositions. It can add warmth and depth to carnation and floral accords while supporting woody and balsamic bases. The material can also help enrich amber and spicy compositions, where its sweet, warm character creates a smooth transition between floral heart notes and deeper base materials. It is particularly useful when a perfumer wants a rounded spicy effect rather than an intensely sharp clove impression.
