Florhydral™ (Givaudan) AC

Florhydral™ is a powerful, fresh-floral aroma molecule from Givaudan with a bright muguet character.
It gives perfumes a natural, transparent freshness and is widely used in fine perfumery as well as laundry and household products.

Florhydral™ opens with a fresh, green tone and develops into a radiant, floral heart reminiscent of lily of the valley, hyacinth and white flowers.

The material gives elevator, clarity and diffusion to compositions and works even in low doses.
Widely used in fine perfumery, floral accords, and homecare/fabric care where clean, long-lasting freshness is desired

Fragrance profile:

• Fresh
• Green
• Floral
• Muguet
• Transparent
• Bright and diffuse

Similar fragrances (to be used alternatively)

• Muguet Aldehyde – classic aldehyde effect that adds elevator and sparkle; works as a direct replacement for traditional muguet accents.
• Lilyflore – softer, creamier muguet tone; choose this if you want less sharpness and more roundness

Complementary fragrances (reinforcing or complementary)

• Aldehydes (general) – enhance brightness and diffusion; combine excellently with Florhydral™ for a lifting top/heart effect.
• Ozonics / Ultraacid-like materials – add a watery, airy layer that accentuates the fresh side of Florhydral™.
• Citrus aldehydes (light) – give a sparkling opening that adds support to the muguet note.
• Hedione or jasmines (subtle) – complement the floral heart without masking the green freshness.

 

Practical blend tips

• Start with low doe: Florhydral™ is potent; start with low ppm or 0.1% level in perfume concentrations and slowly build up to desired effect.
• Balance: combine with a soft creamy flower (e.g., Lilyflore) to soften sharp aldehydic edge.
• Transparency: add a small percentage of ozonic/ultrazur fragrance (such as Calone) for a modern, “clean” finish.

Dosage per application

• Florhydral™ is highly potent and diffuse
• Even at low percentages, it gives a natural, fresh muguet tone
• Too high a dosage can make the perfume too sharp or too technical
