Organoleptic Properties

Odor Type: Fishy
sour, fishy, ammoniacal
General comment At 0.01 % in propylene glycol. sickening sour putrid fishy amine
Arctander suggests the main uses of pyridine relate to coffee and chocolate, as it forms a key part of the aroma of both. The odour isn’t, in the opinion of this perfumer, as repelent or as powerful as the widely circulated descriptions would suggest. As such we are offering pyridine at 0.01% or 1% – please indicate your preferred dilution in the box at checkout – prices are the same for each. The former is really quite pleasant to deal with, the latter has a decidedly unpleasant character dominated by the fishy aspect. Sour, smoky, warm, burnt, coffee, putrid, fishy, amine
