Odour profile (FraterWork)
Nympheal™ opens with exceptionally diffusive, fresh white floral
notes dominated by powerful muguet and cyclamen characters, enriched with
sophisticated watery, green, and linden blossom facets that create a creamy,
opulent texture with remarkable aldehydic lift and radiance.
Longevity (FraterWork)

Descriptions
Description
blossom, watery, green nuances
Nympheal has been a so-called captive molecule for years, meaning it was only
available to selected perfumers. Now, everyone can use it! ;)
What distinguishes Nympheal from other substances in the lily of the valley
group is its extreme longevity, comparable to the legendary Lyral. It will last
on the blotter for many months!
In terms of scent, it falls somewhere between Lilial and Lilyflor, but several
times stronger.
Perfumer Arcadi Boix Camps enthusiastically praises Nympheal:
"The great Lily if the valley, Cyclamen, honeysuckle, magnolia and white
Champaca molecule is about to be released after many years of captivity. Its
strength is unique at 0.021 ng/L air. It is incredibly versatile and diffusive
with fresh, floral creaminess.
Nymphéal has been used hundreds of times but one of its most remarkable
inclusion it has been in Bad Boy by Carolina Herrera where it occurs by around
4.5%"
Nympheal enters into synergy with patchouli, creating a unique chord. We
recommend Givaudan's suggested ratio:
70% – Nympheal™
30% – Patchouli Oil

Comment (FraterWork)
Nympheal is the most recent captive muguet molecule to come to the market (the
other being Mimosal [https://fraterworks.com/products/mimosal]™ from Firmenich)
and the first for Givaudan [https://fraterworks.com/collections/givaudan]. With
the banning of Lyral and Lilial in Europe, Nympheal is a much needed material
for the modern perfumer. First appearing in Woman In Gold (2017) by Killian,
this is Givaudan's "Lilial-replacer" holy grail.
Nympheal can be dosed higher than some muguet materials (such as Dupical and
Hivernal Neo), however, it should be noted that in contrast to Lilial, Nympheal
is much more powerful (around 20 times) and so it does not function as a one for
one replacer. To replace Lilial, start at 5 – 10 times less Nympheal and work up
until you are satisfied.
Nympheal creates an astonishing synergy when blended with LMR Patchouli Heart No
3 [https://fraterworks.com/products/patchouli-coeur-no-3], though blends with
any patchouli oil are beautiful. Nympheal also combines well with the classic
Muguet 16 and all our Muguet bases
[https://fraterworks.com/collections/muguet-collection], Florol
[https://fraterworks.com/products/florol], Amazonia
[https://fraterworks.com/products/amazonia]™, Suralette® Extra
[https://fraterworks.com/products/suralette], Acetal CD
[https://fraterworks.com/products/hyacinth-acetals], Cyclamen Aldehyde and Rose
Oxide Laevo [https://fraterworks.com/products/rose-oxide-laevo].
See our demo formula below which exploits the patchouli / Nympheal synergy. It
is a modern floral fresh Mellis type fragrance in the tradition of Dior's Poison
(1985) and Moon Dance (2014) by Juliette Has A Gun.
Nympheal is biodegradable.
