Use

Ethyl safranate (Giv) has a difficult to describe scent. On the one hand, it is a spicy scent that is reminiscent of spice like anise, with something of apple and mint. On the other hand, it also has a clear fruity floral scent in the direction of rose and red fruit, much like damascones. The scent is quite strong, making a dilution of for example 10% can therefore be useful, this can be done in for example TEC or DPG. You use the substance for spicy accents in fresh fruit and floral scents, usually between 0,1% and 2% of this substance in the fragrance composition. It combines well with many fruit and floral scents. It adds warmth, depth and a spicy aspect to the scent. In addition, it increases the diffusion of the fragrance product. In perfumes it is mainly a heart to base note. It is stable in most products, also in soap, only in bleach it does not work.
