Dihydromyrcenol - Fixative

Dihydromyrcenol is a widely used aroma chemical in modern perfumery, detergents, and air-care products, valued for its exceptional freshness and fast diffusion. It creates an immediate sensory impact, allowing fragrances to fill a space quickly upon spraying or release.

This ingredient delivers a clean, fresh, and energetic character, often associated with aquatic, citrus, and laundry-style fragrances. Due to its high volatility and strong diffusion, Dihydromyrcenol is commonly used in room sprays, air fresheners, fresh perfumes, and functional fragrances where instant aroma presence is required.

Because of its strength, Dihydromyrcenol must be used carefully and at controlled levels to avoid overpowering the fragrance composition.
