What does Hedione smell like, and is IFRA restricting it?
HedioneCAS 24851-98-7
Transparent, radiant jasmine with a soft citrus-magnolia freshness; almost airy, more an effect than a smell on the blotter. A cornerstone diffuser used at high levels to add volume, lift and natural bloom to jasmine, floral and citrus accords.

Linking an account is free with any PerfuMate account; your plan's limits apply, the same as in the app. Your ChatGPT or Claude plan decides whether you can add a connector.
Do I need a PerfuMate account?
No. The four lookups work without signing in. An account is only needed if you want the chat to read and change your own formulas and shelf.
Is the IFRA result a certificate?
No. It is a reference check against the IFRA 51st Amendment, Category 4 (fine fragrance) and EU allergen labelling. Confirm each material against your supplier's IFRA certificate before you sell a product.
