Descriptions

Comment (FraterWork)

Hydroxycitronellal was first synthesised in 1905 by Knoll and Co. At the same time, Chuit Naef & Cie (founded in 1895 and now known as DSM-Firmenich) produced the finest quality of the chemical, called it Cyclosia® and used it to branch out into the aroma chemicals industry (it had previously dealt only in naturals). Cyclosia® is so vastly superior to all other versions of hydroxycitronellal that nearly 120 years later it remains a staple product of the company and the most sought-after white floral / lily of the valley chemical for the finest fragrances in the industry. Cyclosia® has a radiance and diffusion that sets is apart from generic hydroxycitronellal. This makes it a desperately needed material today as it remains one of the few refined lily of the valley aldehydes that can be used in fairly generous amounts (up to 2.1% of the finished perfume) whilst retaining IFRA 51 compliance. Discovered around the same time as the other famed floral chemical Iralia®, Cyclosia® formed a substantial part of the midcentury masterpiece Muguet des Bois [https://fraterworks.com/products/muguet-des-bois-522176], the lily of the valley perfume and then base [https://fraterworks.com/products/muguet-des-bois-522176] created by Henri Robert for Coty and later used as the foundation of Diorissimo [https://fraterworks.com/pages/demo-formulas] by Edmond Roudnitska for Dior.
