Description and usage notes:
Aurantiol is perhaps the best-known Schiff’s base (hydroxycitronellal / methyl anthranilate); extensively used in a large variety of floral notes such as orange-blossom, linden-blossom and tuberose.
Used in citrus cologne types, it acts as an excellent fixative as well as exalting the top notes.
It gives an oriental character when used in amber and chypre compositions and blends particularly well with macrocyclic musks

Don’t let the bright yellow colour put you off; close your eyes and this is the smell of trees in blossom.
It is sweet, but there is a dryness in here too. Works beautifully with Ethylene brassylate, but perhaps equally well with other macrocyclic musks.
