Ambrocenide falls into the amber/woody scent group, with a musky nuance.
It is not pure musk, but an amber-wood molecule often used as a fixative and impact booster in modern perfumes.

Fragrance Profile Ambrocenide Crystals (Symrise)

  • Character: Powerful, ambery, woody, musky
  • Top: Diffuse, bright, slightly citrusy accent (works as a booster for fresh notes)

Use in perfumery

  • Fixative: Anchors volatile notes and extends the shelf life of a perfume.
  • Amber and woody accords: Enhances warm amber notes and gives body to woody textures.
  • Musk notes: Brings musk to the top and makes the composition more radiant.
  • Citrus and aldehydes: Acts as a “booster” that makes freshness last longer.
  • Application:
    • Fine fragrance (Eau de Parfum, Eau de Toilette)
    • Bodycare (lotions, creams)
    • Home fragrance (candles, diffusers)
    • Fragrance products (aircare, detergents)

 

Tips & Curiosities

  • Dosage: Although IFRA does not set a limit in most categories, in fine fragrance, around 0.5-1% is often used in the compound.
  • Combinations:
    • Wonderful with Iso E Super for a modern, transparent wood accord.
    • Combine with Cashmeran or Cetalox for a luxurious amber-musk profile.
    • Works surprisingly well with citrus oils (bergamot, grapefruit) to prolong freshness.
  • Fact: Ambrocenide is often described as an “impact molecule” – a little bit can open up an entire composition and give it more diffusion.
  • Marketing angle: Position it as a “powerful amber booster” that gives perfumes a luxurious, long-lasting base.
  • Educational detail: Molecules such as Ambrocenide are popular in niche perfumery because they offer a modern alternative to natural ambergris effects.
