Descriptions
Comment (FraterWork)
A complex floral and animalic musk (in the deer musk direction), Isomuscone is a
very cost effective alternative to other members of the same family such as
Muscone Laevo [https://fraterworks.com/products/muscone-laevo]. Coming in
crystal form, you simply add the powder to your formula and it will dissolve
during resting.
Perfumery: Techniques in Evolution (a series of articles published in Perfumer
and Flavorist magazine) describe its synergies: “Although I love Isomuscone on
its own, mixtures of it with other musks increase its perception. For in-
stance, a mixture of Isomuscone with ethylene brassilate
[https://fraterworks.com/products/ethylene-brassylate] [sic] at a ratio of 80/20
is stronger than both chemicals smelled separately. This results from a strong
synergy amongst ketones, lactones and dilactones. The same happens when mixing
Globanone [https://fraterworks.com/products/globanone] and Isomuscone. The
mixtures of 20 percent Isomuscone + 80 percent Globanone, or the inverse, 20
percent Globanone + 80 percent Isomuscone, are stronger than the chemicals
smelled separately. It is very common to see mixtures of Galaxolide, Helvetolide
[https://fraterworks.com/products/helvetolide], Habanolide
[https://fraterworks.com/products/habanolide], Muscenone, Ambrettolide
[https://fraterworks.com/products/ambrettolide] and ethylene brassilate.
Mixtures of Isomuscone, Habanolide, Velvione [AKA Ambretone
[https://fraterworks.com/products/ambretone-1]] and Globanone are very, very
good — approaching perfection.”
Blends well with Aerolide [https://fraterworks.com/products/aerolide]®, Grojsman
Plus [https://fraterworks.com/products/grojsman-plus], Miraclewood
[https://fraterworks.com/products/miraclewood]™ and Veticoeur
