About this material
Farnesene opens with a bright, green, and slightly fruity character, reminiscent of fresh-cut grass and citrus peels. As it develops, it reveals a warm, waxy undertone that adds a subtle depth to the composition. This material works well as a middle note, providing a natural, uplifting quality that can enhance both floral and citrus accords. It pairs nicely with other green notes and can help to soften sharper edges in more complex blends. In this catalogue, it is typically used at doses ranging from 0.200% to 1.22%, with a common usage around 0.350%.
