Description

Irotyl, also known as Orris Capronate, is a sophisticated orris-type aroma chemical with a soft, powdery and elegant floral character. It is valued for its ability to create an iris and violet-like impression with subtle fruity, woody and slightly earthy nuances.

In perfumery, Irotyl is useful for building orris, iris, violet, powdery and floral accords. It can add a refined, cosmetic-like character to a composition while helping connect delicate floral notes with woody and musky materials.

Its smooth profile makes it particularly suitable for elegant fragrances where a soft, powdery and sophisticated floral effect is desired.

Perfumers' Tip

Irotyl is excellent for creating a soft, elegant and powdery orris effect. Pair it with Alpha Ionone, Beta Ionone or Methyl Ionone to build a richer iris-violet accord. Heliotropin can enhance the powdery character, while Sandalwood and Iso E Super provide a smooth woody foundation. White musks can further soften the drydown.
