Calypsone
Used in 7 formulas
About this material
Calypsone opens with a bright, fresh, and slightly fruity note reminiscent of tropical fruits, particularly a juicy, sweet pineapple. As it develops, it reveals a subtle green undertone that adds a crispness to the overall profile, making it feel vibrant and lively. In a formula, Calypsone acts as a middle note that enhances the freshness of compositions, providing a lift to both fruity and floral accords without overpowering them. It pairs well with citrus notes and other fruity elements, as well as with green notes to amplify that fresh aspect. The typical dose in formulas ranges from 0.104% to 1.19%, with a common usage around 0.385%.
