Descriptions
Description
After a few years of hiatus, Firmenich has resumed production of the Florex molecule, which is undoubtedly great news! Florex is a unique chemical in the gourmand family. The tonka-tobacco sweetness is broken by an intriguing tangy note, creating a unique whole. Its immense strength and longevity mean it should be handled with a light touch. We definitely recommend diluting it to at least 10% for easier dosing!

Comment (FraterWork)
Florex (also known as Tonka Undecanone) is a powerful and long lasting lactone with a clearly coumarin note but nuances of wood and amber. In Firmenich's own words: “A very powerful and tenacious balsamic, Tonka-like note with a unique tangy quality. It has a sweet yet tart character that suggests tobacco and coconut with a green nuance. It can be used in all types of perfumes but has especially interesting effects in white florals, citrus and fruity accords.” aromachem Best Seller Missing_EU/Specs MISSING_HS_CODE_ORIGIN missing_IFRA51 missing_info no_reg
