Descriptions
Comment (FraterWork)
Phenoxanol stands in for rose absolute when rose absolute is too costly to use in large doses. It is a rich and long lasting heart note with similarities to Phenyl Ethyl Alcohol.  Cécile Zarokian uses it in a megadose in her Rose Aqor (2021) attar for Amouage (formula below) to contribute the main rose note in addition to a selection of high powered synthetics and it is also a key rose note in Gris by Dior. Phenoxanol has a strong yet refined character which allows for the creation of fragrances with remarkable radiance and persistence. It is one of those chemicals that contributes a highly appealing quality to perfumes and certainly should be exploited far more often because of it. aromachem Best Seller missing_batch/dates Missing_EU/Specs MISSING_HS_CODE_ORIGIN missing_IFRA51 missing_info no_reg
