Base
Uses in perfumery :
Peonile® is used in fougere, hesperidic and floral compositions, to bring a geranium nuance. It brings tenacity to functional compositions, over all in fabric care bases.
Natural availability :
Peonile® is not found in nature. It is thus impossible to obtain it on a natural state.
Year of discovery :
1923
Other comments :
The main characteristic of Peonile® is its tenacity. It ables to keep a rose note during a few weeks on a blopper.
Good synergy with Javanol®, in 80/20 proportions (rich, rosy and fruity sandalwood).
