Anethol

Anethol (also commonly spelled Anethole) is a classic, high-impact aroma chemical widely utilized in both perfumery and flavouring, renowned for its intensely sweet, warm, and unmistakable licorice and anise character. It provides a rich, spicy, and herbal sweetness that instantly evokes the authentic, mouth-watering aromatic profile of star anise and sweet fennel.

Suitable for both niche and commercial fragrance development, Anethol blends effortlessly with lavender, coumarin, vanilla, woody notes, and spices, making it an essential ingredient for classic fougère, spicy oriental, and gourmand perfume creation. Additionally, it is a foundational ingredient in the oral care and personal care industries. Developed for professional perfumers, flavourists, and manufacturers, our Anethol delivers consistent high purity, exceptional sweetness, and outstanding stability for large-scale commercial production.
