Descriptions
Description
Piconia is a highly versatile woody ingredient that interestingly enhances the
characteristics of vetiver and patchouli. It adds vitality and lift to
compositions, infusing them with its warm, earthy tones that blend seamlessly
with the deep, robust accents of tobacco. This makes it especially useful in
perfumes where a grounding yet dynamic woodiness is desired.

Comment (FraterWork)
Piconia is a diffusive and lively chemical that is not at all as widespread as
it should be! Think of it as a patchouli and pipe tobacco radiant with dank
vetiver elements. It is earthy, forest-like, fresh and has an interesting power
in both top and base notes. A touch of Piconia can really give lift to a scent.
An interesting discussion and demonstration formula using Piconia can be found
on Basenotes [https://basenotes.com/community/threads/piconia-effects.524733/].
Piconia is usually used pure and while you can use a fairly hefty dose, it is
more commonly seen in the 0.1-2% range. Piconia may contain a trace of butylated
hydroxytoluene as a preservative. That is added by IFF directly and not
Fraterworks. Fortifying chemicals in this way is common in the industry and
should pose no problems.
Piconia is synthesised from the same starting material (isolongiopolene) as some
other great chemicals, notably Symroxane
[https://www.fragrantica.com/news/WPC-2018-All-You-Wanted-To-Know-About-Symroxane-11012.html],
Ysamber, Ambermax and Folenox.
Piconia blends marvellously with Ethyl Linalool
