Odor Description: | Fresh-citrus, aldehydic, ozonic, marine, floral. Powerful and diffusive Arcadi Boix Camps, writing in 1999 says that “Floral Super and geraldehyde … are extremely strong aldehydes and, as usual in chemicals with this structure, have strong citrussy floral notes that combine very well with other aldehydes, especially aliphatic, but also with products such as 4-decenal. I personally love these products and use them in small traces in all kinds of fragrances because they increase the power, radiance and elegance of them.” He goes on to assert that they are “far better than the aliphatic aldehydes” but also that those aldehydes are improved by blending with products such as Floral Super and Geraldehyde. |

IFRA FLAVOR REQUIREMENTS: |
Due to the possible ingestion of small amounts of fragrance ingredients from their use in products in Categories 1 and 6, materials must not only comply with IFRA Standards but must also be recognized as safe as a flavoring ingredient as defined by the IOFI Code of Practice (www.iofi.org). For more details see chapter 1 of the Guidance for the use of IFRA Standards. |
