Eugenol
Fragrance Profile
Eugenol is a legendary and highly impactful aroma chemical in both perfumery and flavouring, renowned for its intensely warm, sweet, and unmistakable spicy clove character. As the primary constituent of natural clove bud oil, it provides a rich, penetrating, and distinctly woody profile with subtle phenolic and floral nuances. It adds an enveloping, radiant warmth and a classic vintage depth to fragrance compositions.
Suitable for both niche and commercial fragrance development, Eugenol is an absolute necessity for reconstructing authentic carnation (dianthus) accords and spicing up rich floral bouquets, particularly rose and ylang-ylang. It blends effortlessly with woods, vanilla, ambers, and orientals, making it a foundational building block for classic spicy oriental and heavy floral perfumes. Developed for professional perfumers, flavourists, fragrance manufacturers, and research laboratories, our Eugenol delivers consistent high-purity quality and outstanding diffusion for large-scale commercial production. (Note: Eugenol is subject to IFRA usage limits due to potential skin sensitization and requires precise professional formulation in cosmetic applications).
