What It Does

Floralozone (3-(4-Ethylphenyl)-2,2-dimethylpropanal) is a synthetic aromatic aldehyde widely used in fine fragrance and cosmetic formulations for its distinctive fresh, ozonic, and marine floral character with subtle cyclamen-like nuances. It is valued by perfumers for its ability to impart a clean, airy quality reminiscent of sea breeze and fresh flowers, making it a popular choice in modern aquatic and floral fragrance compositions. Formulators choose Floralozone for its excellent diffusion, moderate substantivity, and its capacity to lift and brighten fragrance blends, particularly in rinse-off and leave-on personal care products.
