CAS 111879-80-2 · Musk · Macrocyclic · Not restricted by IFRA
Habanolide is dsm-firmenich's macrocyclic musk with the signature 'hot iron on clean cotton' note. It makes musk bases smell freshly laundered, radiant and expensive, and it is one of the most loved clean musks in modern perfumery.
What it smells like
Clean, radiant and silky with a metallic hot-iron nuance and a soft powdery-woody warmth. Very diffusive for a musk and very long-lasting.
How perfumers use it
Use it to lift and brighten musk bases, add a clean-linen effect to florals and give woody-amber blends more radiance. It layers beautifully with Galaxolide and Musk T.
Blends well with: Galaxolide, Musk T, Ambrettolide, Hedione, Iso E Super.
