oriental fragrance

Oriental fragrance is a synthetic or blended odorant formulated to evoke rich, balsamic, and exotic sensory impressions. It is typically described as having a balsamic, floral, and oriental character, aligned with fragrant notes in perfumery and scented consumer products. Also known by the synonym "oriental dreams," this material appears as a liquid with physicochemical traits suitable for incorporation in diverse fragranced formulations. For chemical reference, see its entry on PubChem. Oriental fragrance is generally derived through a combination of aromatic ingredients intended to reproduce or enhance the complex scent profiles associated with traditional oriental perfume families. This material's composition supports its use in a broad range of fragranced products.

Oriental fragrance components may be found naturally in some plant resins and herbs but are principally produced through synthetic or blended processes to achieve a consistent balsamic and floral aroma profile. Its primary application is in fragranced products of all types, including perfumes, personal care items, and household sprays. The versatile scent profile supports usage for imparting balsam, floral, herbal, moss, and oriental notes in complex fragrance compositions. This aligns with FEMA (US) standards for safe usage in fragrance formulations where allowed. The compound is not intended for flavor applications due to lack of flavor safety data.

Oriental fragrance exhibits a specific gravity ranging from 0.98 to 1.03 at 25 °C, reflecting a liquid density comparable to many essential oils and aromatic blends. Its refractive index spans from 1.48 to 1.52 at 20 °C, which is typical for complex fragrance mixtures with multiple aromatic constituents. The compound is soluble in alcohol, facilitating incorporation into ethanolic perfume bases, while being insoluble in water, which influences its formulation behavior in aqueous systems. These physicochemical properties affect the material's blending, stability, and sensory release within fragranced products. The balsamic odor quality is supported by this chemical composition, enabling its typical use in olfactory applications.
