Rose, Pear
Elegant note of pear with fresh rose nuance and a slight watery facet.
Chemical synthesis corresponds to the construction of complex chemical compounds from simpler ones.
Our R&D follows the principles of Green chemistry whenever possible.
The fascinating story of dsm-firmenich floral rosy molecules started in 1982 with the powerful Phenylhexanol, renowned for extending the longevity of floral accords. In 1986, the synthesis of Cyclomethylene citronellol added a second highly effective alternative to rose alcohols complementing Phenylhexanol with its soft, flowery notes. The discovery of Doremox® in 1993 marked a significant milestone, bringing a powerful and complex molecule, an ideal rose oxide substitute.
The twentieth century saw the development of Centifolether, valued for its exceptional stability and distinctive top note alongside the powerful Dorysane, another alternative to rose oxide.
In recent decades, our R&D discovery program has enhanced our palette with cost-efficient captive floral notes, such as Roseolate®, rose, lychee, quince with a sage undertone reminiscent of Sclareolate®, as well as Yodanol®, a versatile floral building block homologue of Phenylhexanol.
With DRT acquisition, the Floral Rosy family has been enriched with renewable, low carbon footprint Geranyl and Neryl acetates as well as some Geraniol specialties, turpentine derived.
