 Timbersilk™
A rich Cedarwood foundation ingredient, Timbersilk™ has a slightly
fresh amber top which evolves into a sensual soft woody dry down.
Its complexity leads many to believe that it is a fragrance in its own.
Utilized in high percentage for woody types, sets the foundation for
Masculine and Feminine fragrances. Timbersilk™ is also widely used
in deep florals, chypre, oriental, spicy, amber and vanilla types and
has a very good substantivity on skin and fabric.

Starfleur™ 40
A notably delicate white petal floral note with fresh green Muguet
facets, Starfleur™ 40 contributes a natural perfection to the
elegance of many Lily of the Valley notes which are commonly
used in the recreation of 3-(-tert-butylphenyl)butanal. Used by
itself or in combination with a variety of ingredients such as Pino
Acetaldehyde, Starfleur™ 40 can amplify the intensity of your
fragrance.

Amber Xtreme™
Is an extremely performing amber woody note that will boost
almost any fragrance direction.It elevates many top notes like fresh
citrus, ozonic, watery and green notes and adds a clean laundry
note when harmonized with Aldehydes. Amber Xtreme™ provides
lift to patchouli and soft creamy facets to sandal notes as well as
enhances balsamic and sweet powdery notes. Amber Xtreme™ is
very cost effective due to its high performance in fragrances

Pino Acetaldehyde
Provides a clean sea breeze effect with an invigorating ozonic crisp
scent. The aldehydic watery facets can be used to emphasize
freshness in fabric conditioners, detergent liquids and is equally
performing in air care (room spray and candles) and personal wash.
