Bourgeonal (Giv)

Bourgeonal (Giv) is a fragrance for use in, for example, perfume, cosmetics and other fragrance products.

Use

Bourgeonal (Giv) has a fresh floral scent. Bourgeonal is widely used as a replacement for Lyral and Lilial, namely as a floraliser. That means it adds a distinct floral component to a fragrance composition, without overpowering or directing the floral scent in one clear direction. It therefore fits into any composition with a floral scent, especially with fresher floral scents such as lily-of-the-valley or cyclamen. It can also add a subtle floral touch to fresh compositions. The smell is not very strong, but it can be useful to dilute Bourgeonal: the recommended concentration is quite low. This is because it is a rather allergenic substance. IFRA has restricted the substance for that reason, see the IFRA website for more information. A dilution of, for example, 25 or 50% makes it easier to use this low dose. Keep cool, dry, dark and out of reach of children.
