METHYL SALICYLATE – herbaceous, sweet, medicinal note with hints of wintergreen and mint

METHYL SALICYLATE

METHYL SALICYLATE is a herbaceous-medicinal raw material with a sweet, penetrating wintergreen character. In perfumery it is particularly useful as an accent in tuberose, exotic flowers and green accords, where it can introduce fresh, slightly balsamic tension.

Olfactory profile

Herbaceous, sweet, medicinal and slightly fruity, with nuances of wintergreen, mint, root and a light tuberose-like floral component.

In formula

It is particularly useful in tuberose, ylang-ylang, cassia, fougère, exotic florals and green accords. In traces it can add naturalness and a fresh-pungent nuance; as the dosage increases, the wintergreen character quickly becomes evident.

With TUBEROSE BASE it can increase the vegetal and narcotic side; with AMYL SALICYLATE it creates a broader salicylate structure; with ylang-ylang it adds tension; with dark fruits it can introduce an unusual green note.

How to work with it

It is a powerful material subject to use restrictions. It is best evaluated at strong dilution and always in the context of the complete formula, because the distance between a useful nuance and a dominant medicinal effect is very small.

When to choose it

It is particularly suitable when a green-medicinal wintergreen note is needed, or when a tuberose or exotic-flower accord requires greater tension and realism.

Packaging

The product is packed to order; the container may vary depending on the selected format and the characteristics of the raw material.
