Organoleptic Properties

Odor Type: Floral
peony, floral, geranium, grapefruit, fresh
Odor strength medium
Substantivity 400 hour(s) at 100.00 %
General comment At 100.00 %. floral geranium grapefruit fresh
Peonile, with its geranium-rosy character, gives interesting combinations in floral, fougère or hesperidian accords. Peonile is powerful, relatively non-volatile and is very stable in almost all media. It has very high substantivity on wet and dry laundry and helps to increase volume and tenacity in functional perfumes. Floral, Geranium, Grapefruit, Fresh
Writing in 1999 Arcadi Boix Camps says it “is an extremely good chemical smelling of geranium, rose and other flowers. It is incredibly effective as a floralizer on powder detergent and soap fragrances and provides a harmony not easily acheived with other chemicals. It remains captive and is missing from most laboratories, but I believe it will come to be used more and more because of its outstanding and impressive properties” Floral-rose and geranium, green-citrus.
