6-Methyl Coumarin

6-Methyl Coumarin (CAS 92-48-8) is one of the fragrance allergens the European Union requires to be named on a label once it passes a threshold. Nothing in this catalog carries it as a constituent, so it reaches a formula one way only: you reached for the bottle. That makes it the easy kind to account for.

What 6-Methyl Coumarin smells like

Sweet coconut-vanilla coumarinic note, creamier and more lactonic-gourmand than coumarin itself. Prohibited by IFRA for fragrance use due to photoallergy; its tonka, hay and dessert applications survive only in flavors.

It is a material in its own right, not only a line on a label: its catalog page carries the full profile.

Estimates from typical published compositions, not a certificate of analysis for your bottle. A supplier's own figures always win.

PerfuMate totals these across a whole formula while you compose, counting the same molecule arriving from several materials at once, and writes the declaration for the back of the bottle. Start a formula, free. No account needed.
