About this material

Estragole opens with a fresh, sweet, anise-like aroma that is bright and uplifting, reminiscent of fennel or tarragon. As it develops, the sweetness becomes more subtle, revealing a slightly herbal and green undertone that adds complexity. In a formula, it acts as a top note that can enhance the freshness of citrus and herbal compositions, bringing a lively character to the blend. It pairs well with other green notes, citrus oils, and floral accords, providing a refreshing lift without overwhelming the other elements. Typically used at a dose of 0.102% to 0.11%, around 0.106% in this catalogue, it is effective in small amounts, contributing to the overall brightness of the fragrance.
