Description
Evernyl® is a valued ingredient in modern perfumery, known for its ability to replace oakmoss in classic chypre and fougere compositions. It delivers the signature aroma of oakmoss without the restrictions associated with the natural extract. Thanks to its high aromatic performance, it is used at extremely low concentrations, making it particularly efficient. Evernyl® is ideal for enhancing and enriching floral notes, adding depth and longevity to fragrance creations. Since its introduction in 1968, it has served as an indispensable tool for perfumers, enabling the creation of sophisticated and timeless fragrances.
Additional information
- Since 1968, Evernyl® has allowed the continued creation of classic chypre fragrances, despite restrictions on the use of natural oakmoss, transforming the art of perfumery.
- Evernyl® offers a more sustainable alternative to natural oakmoss, the harvesting of which can impact ecosystems, making it an ecological choice.
- Just a few parts per million of Evernyl® are enough to impart an oakmoss tone to a fragrance, making it one of the most potent fragrance ingredients.
