Descriptions
Description
Traditionally, substances with a citrus character are typically associated with
top notes. Mefranal, thanks to its unique structure, extends into the late
heart, maintaining its fresh and bright character. A very useful substance!

Comment (FraterWork)
Mefranal opens with refreshing lemon-geranium brightness—clean, aldehydic, and
immediately uplifting. The floral heart reveals lily-of-the-valley character
that feels vibrant rather than heavy, while aldehydic facets add sophistication.
Unlike typical citrus materials that fade quickly, Mefranal maintains its fresh,
bright character well into the late heart.
Mefranal bridges citrus top notes and floral hearts beautifully. Its unique
structure allows it to extend further into compositions than typical citrus
materials, maintaining freshness where others would have evaporated. Use it to
add aldehydic lift to muguet accords, or to bring geranium-citrus brightness to
peony and fresh floral compositions. The material excels in functional perfumery
where its outstanding stability in fabric conditioners, shampoos, and detergents
is invaluable.
Work with Mefranal at up to 2–3% of your concentrate. The exceptional
substantivity makes it remarkable value for lasting freshness. It shows
excellent stability in most applications except acidic products and liquid
bleach. Blend with other muguet materials for bright lily accords, or pair with
geranium and citrus notes for sophisticated fresh florals.
