Coumarin

Coumarin is one of the most historically significant and fundamental aroma chemicals in modern perfumery, renowned for its rich, sweet, and comforting character. It provides an unmistakable, warm profile reminiscent of new mown hay, toasted almonds, and sweet vanilla, perfectly capturing the essence of the tonka bean from which it was originally isolated. As a highly tenacious base note and exceptional fixative, it adds lasting depth, powdery softness, and voluminous warmth to fragrance compositions.

Suitable for both niche and commercial fragrance development, Coumarin is the absolute cornerstone of the classic Fougère fragrance family when paired with lavender and oakmoss. It blends effortlessly with woody notes, spices, orientals, and gourmand accords. Developed for professional perfumers, fragrance manufacturers, perfume brands, and research laboratories, our Coumarin delivers consistent high purity, outstanding stability, and exceptional substantivity across all applications for large-scale commercial production.
