CAS: 66327-54-6
Vernaldehyde™ (CAS: 66327-54-6) is a synthetic fragrance aldehyde with the chemical name 1-Methyl-4-(4-methyl-3-pentenyl)cyclohex-3-ene-1-carbaldehyde. It is highly valued in perfumery for its fresh, floral-green, watery, muguet (lily-of-the-valley), cyclamen, and ozonic notes. It offers a clean and airy character, making it a versatile ingredient for creating various fresh and floral accords.
Vernaldehyde™ is primarily used as a fragrance ingredient in a wide range of consumer products. Its applications include fine fragrances (perfumes, colognes), personal care products (soaps, shampoos, body lotions, deodorants), laundry detergents, fabric softeners, air fresheners, and other household cleaning products where a fresh, floral, or watery scent is desired.
In perfumery, Vernaldehyde™ is applied to create fresh, watery, and ozonic notes, often contributing to the top and middle phases of a fragrance. It is frequently used to enhance or build muguet, cyclamen, and general lily-of-the-valley accords. It provides a unique balance of greenness and floral transparency, lending a modern, clean feel to compositions. It pairs well with other floral, citrus, and woody notes, offering lift and diffusion.
Vernaldehyde™ is generally considered safe for use in fragrance applications when used at recommended levels. As with most fragrance materials, potential for skin sensitization exists, though it is typically rated as having a low sensitization potential. Manufacturers and formulators should adhere to industry guidelines, such as those provided by IFRA (International Fragrance Association), for maximum usage levels in various product categories. Standard industrial hygiene practices, including proper ventilation and personal protective equipment (gloves, eye protection), should be followed during handling. Consult the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for detailed information on safe handling, storage, and emergency procedures.
