Cis-jasmone, as the name suggests, comes from jasmine flowers. It features a distinctive scent reminiscent of tuberose, with subtle notes of celery seed and black tea. It is a frequent ingredient in fragrance formulations, because even in tiny amounts it can add warmth and depth that are difficult to achieve with other ingredients.
Although cis-jasmone occurs naturally in many sources, perfumers often produce a laboratory-created nature-identical version to ensure consistent quality and help preserve the planet's natural resources. The laboratory version can be produced from various raw materials, including renewable feedstocks, thereby supporting sustainability in the fragrance industry.
Cis-jasmone is not only found in jasmine! It occurs naturally in a surprising variety of sources, from apricots and citrus fruits to cinnamon and chamomile. This wide presence in nature contributes to the complexity of its scent profile.
The prefix cis in the name refers to the specific molecular structure of the ingredient. This structure is crucial for its aromatic properties, since a different structure (trans instead of cis) would result in an entirely different scent.
You enjoy cis-jasmone daily without knowing it, as it occurs naturally in the tea you drink, the beer you enjoy and even the curry that seasons your food. Its subtle presence contributes to the aroma and flavor of many everyday products.
