Jasmine, Celery, Lactonic Fruits, Green
A potent and diffusive lactonic jasmine note with hints of celery seed, reminiscent of Cis Jasmone. It also carries herbal and foliage undertones.
It serves as an excellent substitute for Cis Jasmone, commonly used in floral or spicy accords, particularly for jasmine. Its lactonic character lends intriguing effects to fruity notes like peach, coconut, and other tropical fruits. DELPHONE enhances creations with its ability to add body and diffusivity, though it is primarily valued as a white floral booster.
DELPHONE is a by-product of the synthesis of HEDIONE®.
Chemical synthesis corresponds to the construction of complex chemical compounds from simpler ones.
Our R&D follows the principles of Green chemistry whenever possible.
The HEDIONE® family began with dsm-firmenich's discovery of the molecule HEDIONE® in 1958, as part of the methyl jasmonate synthesis. Further ingredients continue to be developed to meet additional specific technical needs, such as a heightened stability or strength.
DELPHONE® is part of the HEDIONE® family.
HEDIONE® brings to mind the old adage, "He who wishes to be heard will always whisper".
