Mosciano, Gerard P&F 23, No. 3, 55, (1998)“Sweet, powdery, vanilla, anise, woody, coumarin and creamy with a spicy nuance”
Luebke, William tgsc, (1982)“Sweet powdery mimosa floral hawthorn balsam”
Pell Wall Perfumes“Sweet, floral-hawthorn, powdery, vanilla, anise, woody, coumarin arctander gives some good indications of its useage: “very widely used in perfumery, only restricted because of its poor stability in alkali and in the presence of amines. certain fragrance types may contain well over 10% of this aldehyde, while a few percent or less can introduce satisfactory effects in other types. it is an excellent companion to the sharper aldehydes, will round them off and reduce their pungency.””
