Usage
Use (Hekserij)
Hedione (Fir) has a light green floral fragrance that reminds of jasmine. The
scent is not very strong, undiluted use is common. However, this substance is
not used for the smell impression but for the other property it has. It enhances
the impact and diffusion of virtually any perfume in which it is used, and has a
harmonising effect on many compositions. You usually use between 1% and 30% of
this substance in the fragrance composition. It combines well with almost all
floral fragrances, but especially with jasmine, lilac, magnolia and other white
flowers. The booster effect usually occurs after some maturation. In perfumes,
it is mainly a heart note, but the harmonising booster effect goes through the
whole fragrance pyramid. It is stable in most products, including soap, but the
effect is strongest at a neutral pH.
