About this material
Methyl Palmitate has a soft, creamy, and slightly fatty scent that evokes a subtle warmth. It opens with a mild, sweet, and slightly waxy note that can add a smooth texture to a formula. As it develops, it maintains its gentle character, providing a roundness that can help to soften sharper notes. This ester works well as a fixative and can enhance the longevity of lighter fragrances. It pairs nicely with floral and fruity notes, as well as with other fatty materials, to create a richer, more rounded profile. In this catalogue, it is typically used at around 2.000%.
