Ethyl Linalool is a refined floral molecule known for its fresh, bergamot-like brightness and elegant softness. Compared to traditional linalool, it is noticeably smoother, sweeter, and less agrestic, offering a more polished and modern interpretation of floral freshness. Its scent profile combines delicate citrus facets with a clean floral heart, making it an essential building block in contemporary perfumery.
Widely used across floral bouquets, Ethyl Linalool enhances compositions with lift, clarity, and diffusion. It blends seamlessly with citrus notes, florals such as rose and lavender, and even woody or musky bases, providing a smooth transition between top and heart notes. Its versatility allows it to function both as a supporting modifier and a key contributor to freshness.
From a performance perspective, Ethyl Linalool offers good diffusion with a tenacity of around 16 hours on blotter. It performs well in functional applications, including soap, where it delivers a pleasant bloom and maintains freshness. With usage levels reaching up to 40%, it is a highly adaptable ingredient that brings brightness, balance, and sophistication to a wide range of fragrance creations.
