What It Does

Florhydral (3-(3-Isopropylphenyl)butanal) is a synthetic aromatic aldehyde fragrance ingredient developed by Givaudan, widely recognized for its fresh, clean, and intensely floral character with a distinctive lily-of-the-valley and green nuance. It is valued by perfumers and cosmetic formulators for its exceptional diffusion and longevity, contributing a modern, airy floral note to fine fragrances, rinse-off, and leave-on cosmetic products. Florhydral is subject to IFRA guidelines and must be used within recommended concentration limits due to its potential sensitization profile, making careful dosage essential in formulation.
