Use
Calone 1951 (Fir) has a hard to describe scent that is reminiscent of algae, the sea, ozone, watermelon, open water. The smell is quite strong and it is a solid, powdery substance. Making a dilution of, for example, 10% in DPG, IPM or TEC can therefore be useful. Typical use is in marine accords, water scents and such more abstract, fresh scents. You usually use between 0,1% and 2% of this substance in the fragrance composition. It combines well with fresh floral scents such as lily of the valley and cyclamen, but also with cedar wood. In perfumes it is mainly a base note, it is stable in most products, including soap. In candles it gives off a good scent both in cold form and when burning.
Keep cool, dry, dark and out of the reach of children.
Properties
Calone 1951 (Fir) is a colourless to slightly yellow liquid at room temperature. The purity is at least 99% and the substance has a fairly long shelf life. It does not occur in nature, it is a synthetic substance. The manufacturer is Firmenich. While Fimenich, like all major fragrance manufacturers, does their utmost to make each batch smell as close as possible to the previous one, Calone 1951 is a difficult material at this point. There can be some variation, with one the daffodil aspect is more obvious, with another the watermelon aspect and with yet another the algae aspect.
