ginger fragrance

Ginger fragrance is an aromatic compound characterized by a predominantly spicy odor that resembles fresh ginger root. It often exhibits floral and herbal nuances, providing a warm and invigorating scent experience. The fragrance is commonly used in various fragranced products across multiple industries. Known synonyms for this odorant are generally tied to its source, ginger, and its chemical derivatives. The compound’s general chemical profile and structure can be referenced in databases such as PubChem. This fragrance is typically sourced through extraction or synthesis methods aimed at duplicating the signature spicy aromatic notes of natural ginger. Its application profiles leverage its sensorial contribution rather than flavor use.

This fragrance material is inspired by the natural aroma of ginger, a plant known for its pungent rhizome. In fragranced products of all types, it serves to provide spicy, floral, and herbal notes that enhance scent complexity. The compound’s utility spans perfumery, personal care, and household products where a warm and dynamic scent profile is desired. Compliance with standards such as the IFRA (International Fragrance Association) (Global) guidelines ensures appropriate usage levels in formulations. As it is not intended for flavoring purposes, use focuses exclusively on olfactory impact in cosmetics and other scented compositions.

Ginger fragrance exhibits solubility in alcohols, enabling easy formulation in ethanol-based fragrance systems, while showing insolubility in water, which affects its dispersion in aqueous products. This solubility profile informs its incorporation in typical perfumery bases and influences evaporation and diffusion behaviors. Its physical and chemical properties contribute to its stability and olfactory persistence within products. Notably, the absence of classified hazards under OSHA’s 29 CFR 1910 standard reflects a lack of significant toxicity data but does not preclude standard occupational precautions during handling.
