About this material

Alpha Cedrol opens with a fresh, woody aroma that has a slightly sweet, balsamic undertone reminiscent of cedar wood. As it develops, the scent becomes softer and more rounded, revealing a warm, resinous quality that adds depth to compositions. In a formula, it acts as a stabilizing base note, enhancing the longevity and richness of other ingredients without overpowering them. It pairs well with citrus notes, florals, and other woody elements, making it versatile across various fragrance types. The typical usage range is from 0.598% to 6.10%, with a common concentration around 1.800%.
