Description

Mandarin Aldehyde 10% TEC is a pre-diluted fragrance material containing Trans-2-Dodecenal in Triethyl Citrate (TEC). It is valued for its distinctive mandarin-like citrus character, combined with green, aldehydic, waxy and slightly fatty nuances.

The material provides a bright and natural citrus effect and can help create the impression of freshly peeled mandarin and citrus zest. Its aldehydic character also adds lift and sparkle to fragrance compositions.

Because the material is supplied at 10% dilution, it is easier to incorporate into formulas and evaluate gradually. It is especially useful for fresh citrus fragrances where a natural peel-like character is desired.

Perfumers' Tip

Mandarin Aldehyde 10% TEC is excellent for adding a bright, fresh and realistic mandarin-peel effect. Combine it with Mandarin Oil and D-Limonene for a fuller citrus profile, or use Citral and Lemon Oil for additional brightness. Cis-3-Hexenol can enhance the green freshness, while Linalool and Hedione help create a smooth citrus-floral transition.
