Firmenich: A drier, fresher and less sweet edible odor than eugenol. it is very diffusive and recalls the freshness of bay leaf and pimento leaf oils
It gives fresher and more floral perfumery effects compared with eugenol and has more top note impact. goes very well in masculine notes, fougere, chypre and orientals.
