The Creation Process of a New Fragrance Ingredient: L'Âme du Bois™

Eurofragance has recently launched L'Âme du Bois™, its first captive ingredient: a new, upcycled fragrance material developed hand in hand by R&D and Perfumers. Both teams were driven by their passion for innovation and their desire to open new fragrance creation opportunities. The additional challenge was to create a raw material while focusing on environmentally respectful processes. In this presentation we will review how the quest for an ingredient with differentiating olfactive properties was translated in technical terms, and how minute structural or compositional changes can influence the perception and the performance of a raw material alone or in a fragrance.
