Description
Muscenone® is a fine fragrance ingredient used exclusively in fine perfumery to create luxurious and memorable scent experiences. Discovered in 1967, marking an important milestone in the evolution of synthetic musks, it is a registered trademark of Firmenich SA. Muscenone® blends seamlessly into musk, leather, and chypre compositions, as well as heavy, warm notes, adding exceptional volume and longevity when combined with other musks. Its unique chemical structure, slightly stronger than Muscone®, makes it a valuable tool for perfumers seeking to enrich their creations with a sensual and sophisticated signature.
Additional information
- Muscenone® was discovered in 1967 during a period of intense research into synthetic alternatives for hard-to-find natural perfumery ingredients.
- As a synthetic substitute for natural musk, Muscenone® helps protect animals by promoting a more ethical approach to perfumery.
- Muscenone® is a registered trademark of Firmenich SA, highlighting the importance of intellectual property in the fragrance industry.
