carnation specialty

Carnation specialty is a complex fragrance ingredient known for its spicy and floral aroma reminiscent of carnation flowers. This compound appears as a liquid with physicochemical parameters suitable for diverse perfumery applications. It carries multiple synonyms including dianthine SA, dianthus perfume base, and corps 216. The sensory profile focuses on a distinctive spicy carnation odor, making it valuable for creating floral accords. Sourced primarily for fragrance purposes, this material links closely to controlled-vocabulary references such as the PubChem database. Its synthesis or extraction combines aromatic compounds to replicate the natural essence of Dianthus caryophyllus, the carnation flower.

Carnation specialty is mainly employed as a fragrance agent in the perfume industry, helping to create or enhance carnation notes in various products. Its biological origin relates to the scent composition of Dianthus species, representing a floral and spicy character. The material suits applications in festive or celebratory-themed fragrances, labeled under the category 'fetes'. In regulatory terms, compliance with the IFRA (Global) Code of Practice is essential, particularly the 49th Amendment that governs usage levels to ensure safe consumer exposure. Although it is noted for fragrance use, it is not indicated for flavor applications. The fragrance thus finds uses across perfumes, personal care items, and similar scented goods.

This compound exhibits a flash point of 72 °C, indicating moderate volatility and flammability considerations during handling. Its specific gravity ranges from 0.98 to 1.03 at 25 °C, suggesting a density close to water, which influences formulation volumes. The refractive index varies from 1.48 to 1.53 at 20 °C, signifying its optical properties important for purity and consistency checks. Solubility characteristics reveal good compatibility with alcohol solvents but insolubility in water, which affects how the material integrates into perfumery compositions. These attributes guide the formulation process, storage, and safety protocols for fragrance creation.
