beta-Damascone

Beta-Damascone is a synthetic aromatic ketone belonging to the damascone family, characterized by its intensely rich, rosy, fruity, and slightly woody scent profile. It is one of the most potent fragrance molecules used in perfumery, requiring only trace concentrations (often below 0.1%) to impart a distinctive rose-like character with plum and tobacco nuances. Formulators prize it for its exceptional diffusivity and tenacity, making it a key ingredient in fine fragrances, skin care, and hair care products where a long-lasting floral-fruity signature is desired.
