ALDEHYDE C12 LAURIC – aldehydic, green and waxy note with fresh linen, bitter citrus and soapy violet

ALDEHYDE C12 LAURIC

ALDEHYDE C12 LAURIC is one of the classic fatty aldehydes of perfumery: very powerful, green, waxy and floral, capable of creating the abstract “fresh linen” sensation typical of many aldehydic accords. In the concentrated material a waxy fatness dominates; in dilution, bitter citrus, violet, lily and a brighter clean effect emerge.

Olfactory profile

Aldehydic, green, waxy, herbal, citrusy and floral, with nuances of soap, violet and clean linen. Compared with C11 UNDECYLENIC, it is less rosy and more green, bitter and fresh-linen-like.

In formula

ALDEHYDE C12 LAURIC is extremely versatile. It can add lift and freshness to violet, pine, chypre, citrus, floral and clean accords; in aldehydic bouquets it contributes to an abstract, bright and highly diffusive top. In small amounts it can modernize a classic floral or create a clean sensation without relying on detergent-like musks.

It is particularly useful when a formula needs more air, tension and persistence in the upper part without adding sweetness.

How to work with it

It is preferable to study it at strong dilution: the neat material can feel fatty and poorly representative of its effect in formula. It may solidify or polymerize during storage; if necessary, restore fluidity with very gentle, controlled warming, avoiding repeated cycles of intense heat.

When to choose it

It is particularly suitable for aldehydic bouquets, violet, pine, chypre, citrus and clean compositions when green-waxy brightness, a fresh-linen effect and strong diffusion are desired.
