Organoleptic Properties

Odor Type: Melon
fresh, watery, clean, melon, green, marine, ozone, phenolic
Odor strength high , recommend smelling in a 10.00 % solution or less
Substantivity > 600 hour(s) at 10.00 % in dipropylene glycol
Luebke, William tgsc, (1986) At 10.00 % in dipropylene glycol. fresh watery clean melon green marine ozone phenolic
The ingredient is very trendy and has been widely used since the 1990’s. The ingredient is the basis of several perfumes. This unusual odorant has intense ozone and marine notes with floral overtones
General comment Marine moss ozone floral heliotrope melon green fresh
The classic fresh, watery, marine note used in many modern compositions, here in an easier to use liquid form originally made available by Firmenich – it’s at 50% in DME (carbitol) – but the material for sale here is a generic equivalent. Fresh, watery, clean, melon-green, marine, ozone
