Use

The scent of Ionone alpha sits on the interface of flowers, fruit and wood. This makes the substance difficult to describe, but also very versatile. A powdery iris scent is perhaps the best short description. The smell is not very strong, making a dilution is therefore not necessary. You can use any amount in the fragrance composition: a trace up to more than 30%. The main floral scents it is used in are cyclamen, hyacinth, honeysuckle, lily of the valley, rose, violet and white flowers. Also available in leather, wood and fantasy fragrances. It is primarily a base note, sometimes heart note, in perfumery and is stable in most products, including soap. Keep cool, dry, dark and out of reach of children.

Properties

Ionone alpha is a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature. The substance has a fairly long shelf life. The substance is very limited in nature, the synthetic version is used for use as a fragrance. The fragrance is very similar to Ionone beta. This is partly due to the strong chemical relationship, which means that the alpha variant can still contain up to about 25% Ionone beta. The main difference in scent is that the alpha version has more of the cedar aspect of jonone and the beta version much less, making the fruity aspect stronger.

Packaging

The 10 and 50 ml packaging is made of brown glass with a black cap. The 250 g package is made of aluminum with a stopper and a white cap.

Dangers

Ionone alpha is not classified as a hazardous substance (REACH/CLP). Nevertheless, we recommend that you handle all substances with care.
