About this material

Sylkolide opens with a soft, creamy sweetness that has a subtle floral undertone, reminiscent of fresh laundry or clean skin. As it develops, the scent becomes more rounded and smooth, with a gentle warmth that adds a comforting depth without becoming overpowering. In a formula, it acts as a softening agent, enhancing the overall texture and providing a lasting, velvety finish. It pairs well with other musks, florals, and even some fruity notes, making it versatile for a range of compositions. The typical usage in this catalogue is between 0.321% and 4.10%, with a common dose around 1.045%.
