Smells of: floral, violet-like
Role: floral middle note

Beta Ionone opens with a soft, floral sweetness reminiscent of violet and a subtle fruitiness that adds a fresh touch. As it develops, it reveals a slightly woody and powdery character, which gives it a rounded, comforting warmth. This material is versatile and works well as a middle note, enhancing floral compositions and adding depth to fruity accords. It can also help to soften sharper notes, making it a great choice for balancing citrus or green elements. Pair it with other florals like jasmine or rose for a lush bouquet, or use it in combination with woody notes to create a smooth transition in the base. It typically works well in doses from 0.060% to 3.80%, with a common use around 0.870%.
