Anisic aldehyde (anisaldehyde) is an indispensable aroma chemical for contributing Hawthorne, mimosa, lilac and powdery notes to a scent. It delivers exceptional performance as a bridge note in complex compositions. This powerful aldehyde creates seamless transitions between floral and gourmand elements. Exploit its multifaceted character to achieve sophisticated sweetness without cloying heaviness. This material blends exceptionally with heliotropin for powdery effects and benzyl acetate for jasmine modifications. Apply sparingly in floral compositions where it amplifies sweetness without overwhelming delicate notes. And best of all, unlike virtually every material restricted by the EU or IFRA, Anisaldehyde has seen a lifting of restrictions from a maddeningly low 0.2% under IFRA 43 to a whopping (comparatively) 1.4% under IFRA 51. We also stock a beautiful 100% natural version of this chemical. It is our Anisaldehyde, Natural.
