Forget Lyral® and Lilial replacers; now is the time for the ascent of true alternatives that offer beauty and elegance and the benefit of what modern lily and green chemicals have to offer us as perfumers. Celestafleur™ is radiant and long lasting but it has a quality that really sets it apart from the classic muguet chemicals: it is effervescent. Celestafleur™ sparkles like stars in the firmament and it is from that characteristic that it derives its name. Usable at a massive 9%, this can be a one for one replacer for Lyral® and Lilial but it can also be overdosed as the foundation of a highly modern monolithic lily scent. Celestafleur™ makes for a perfect general floraliser upon which to layer other luscious flowers, as in the case of Chanel's Gabrielle (2017) for which we present a demonstration formula further down this page. Celestafleur™ blends incredibly well with citrus oils and has a synergy with green, ozonic and watery chemicals such as Calone® Plus, Cis 3 Hexenol (and its esters), Florhydral, Floralozone, and Helional. Bases such as Amazonia™ are elevated when combined with Celestafleur™, and herbal bases such as Suralette™ Extra and Artemal™ are wonderful with it.
