Why This Matters to Your Perfumer

  • The balance of these three compounds is what defines an authentic damask rose profile
  • A GC-MS chromatographic profile is provided with every batch, letting your perfumer compare our wax against your existing rose materials
  • Because the compounds are naturally occurring, the wax blends well with other floral, citrus and oriental notes

Send your target compound specification and we will confirm our GC-MS data against it before you order.
