I do not have enough information to describe the smell of lavender aldehyde FCC (bedoukian).
Luebke, William tgsc, (1988): Herbal lavender woody green blueberry tomato
Pell Wall Perfumes: Dirty socks, herbal-lavender, woody-cedar, green
Arctander describes, what was then a novel ingredient, like this: “powerful, herbaceous-resinous, slightly minty odor with woody-lavender-like under- tone and moderate to poor tenacity.”
Bedoukian Research: Very powerful, natural, diffusive, herbaceous with a hint of cocoa, blueberry, bergamot, clary sage, and lavender overtones
Powerful/diffusive, blends well with bergamot, clary sage, lavender, citrus, great in fougere types.
