What does Pivarose smell like?
Givaudan describes a floral tea-rose note with a fruity balsamic character and a hint of honey sweetness. It is 2-phenylethyl pivalate, and the house positions it as a modifier for the common rose alcohols and esters rather than as a rose in its own right. In practice it goes in beside phenylethyl alcohol and the rose esters to pull them toward dried tea petals and honey, taking the greenish sharpness off a rose accord and giving it a warmer, slightly balsamic sweetness. Used up to 3 percent, with good bloom in soap and strong performance in fabric conditioner, shampoo and all-purpose cleaner bases; substantivity is medium on damp substrate and slight on dry.
