Alpha Damascone

About this material

Alpha Damascone opens with a rich, fruity aroma reminiscent of ripe red fruits, particularly a sweet, jammy note that can evoke both raspberry and cherry. As it develops, a subtle floral nuance emerges, adding complexity with a hint of rose-like character that softens the initial fruitiness. This material is particularly effective in enhancing fruity and floral compositions, providing a lush, inviting quality that can elevate the overall scent profile. It works well with other fruity notes like pear or peach, and can also complement floral elements such as jasmine or rose. The typical usage in formulas ranges from 0.020% to 0.11%, with many applications around 0.050%.
