Menthol 1490-04-06

Über diesen Rohstoff

Menthol opens with a sharp, cooling freshness that is instantly recognizable, reminiscent of mint leaves and a crisp, invigorating breeze. As it develops, the initial intensity softens slightly, revealing a subtle sweetness and a creamy, almost buttery texture that adds a smoothness to the overall scent. In a formula, menthol acts as a brightener, enhancing freshness and providing a cooling effect that can invigorate both floral and citrus compositions. It pairs well with eucalyptus and peppermint for a refreshing lift, or can be used to add a cooling sensation to gourmand notes. The typical usage in this catalogue ranges from 0.110% to 4.88%, with most formulas using around 0.405%.
