Other Descriptions
Cinnamyl Alcohol
Pell Wall Perfumes: Warm-balsamic, floral-hyacinth and rose, sweet, mild almonds
Arctander says this: “widely used in perfume compositions, including many low-cost floral fragrances, soap perfumes, etc. blends excellently with amylsalicylate, phenylethylalcohol, aromatic propionates, benzoates, etc. generally as a modifier-blender with fair tenacity and moderate fixative value.”
Cinnamyl Alcohol
Fraterworks: Cinnamyl (or cinnamic) alcohol is a vital material for hyacinth, lilac and muguet accords but also for generally sweetening a formula. it has a delicate cinnamic nuance and blends beautifully with hydroxycitronellal, terpineol and balsamic naturals like styrax (oil and resinoid) and benzoin especially.
We also stock the luxurious natural isolate cinnamic alcohol ex styrax which is a rare treasure from the golden age of perfumery. we highly recommend both.
