Tetrahydroflorol™ (Privi Speciality Chemicals)
Impact
Working dilution
What does Tetrahydroflorol smell like?
Fresh floral, sweet and citrus. The house publishes a blotter substantivity of twelve hours and recommends it between 0.1 and 5 percent, with about 0.5 percent typical. It is a fixed blend of tetrahydrolinalool (45-50 percent) and tetrahydromyrcenol (48-53 percent), minimum 97 percent combined, so it reads as a clean muguet-lily transparency carried on a citrus lift rather than as either constituent alone. Privi rates it as performing very well in alcoholic perfumery, talc and soap or shampoo, and well in hair conditioners and shower products, which is where a hydrogenated alcohol of this type earns its keep: it is stable in base and does not go rancid or discolour the way linalool can.
Use Tetrahydroflorol in a formula
What is Tetrahydroflorol made of?
What the supplier DECLARES, not the whole formula. A base is a blend somebody else made: an IFRA conformity certificate and an allergen declaration list the restricted and declarable substances only, so these shares add up to a few percent and the remainder stays with the house. PerfuMate counts exactly what is listed here and claims nothing about the rest.
