Description

Acetyl Cedrene is a high-value synthetic fragrance ingredient prized for its unique woody, ambergris-like olfactory profile. This compound matters for formulators seeking to create sophisticated, long-lasting, and complex scent accords in fine perfumery and functional products. Key industries that need it include fragrance houses, cosmetic manufacturers, and producers of high-end personal care and home care products. Its stability and compatibility make it a versatile component in modern fragrance creation.

Application

• Fine Fragrance Formulation: Used as a heart or base note to impart rich, woody, and ambery nuances in perfumes, eau de toilettes, and colognes.
• Personal Care Products: Incorporated into scents for luxury soaps, shower gels, lotions, and deodorants to enhance fragrance longevity and character.
• Cosmetic & Toiletry Bases: Utilized in the scenting of creams, shampoos, and conditioners where a stable, non-discoloring woody note is desired.
• Functional Product Fragrancing: Applied in industrial deodorants and specialty cleaning products requiring a stable and effective masking or perfuming agent.
• Aromatherapy & Candles: Occasionally used in niche aromatherapy blends and scented candles to contribute a deep, resinous woody aroma.

Quality Control

Our Acetyl Cedrene is produced under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and purity suitable for fragrance applications. Quality is verified through a battery of analytical tests including GC, IR, and olfactory evaluation. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and specific olfactory properties is provided with every shipment to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at 15-25°C (59-77°F). Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Due to its light-sensitive and easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) for long-term preservation of quality, especially after opening.
