About this material

L-Laurinal opens with a fresh, slightly waxy scent that has a subtle floral undertone, reminiscent of clean linens and soft soap. As it develops, it reveals a creamy, slightly sweet character that adds a smoothness to the overall profile. This material is effective in enhancing the longevity and richness of compositions, making it a reliable fixative in both floral and fruity blends. It pairs well with citrus notes to create a bright, uplifting effect, and can also soften harsher elements in more complex formulas. The typical usage in this catalogue ranges from 0.422% to 2.88%, with an average around 1.300%.
