Methyl dihydrojasmonate, or MDJ, is the transparent jasmine molecule that Firmenich made famous as Hedione. It doesn't smell like a heavy jasmine flower. It smells like the air around one, and it makes almost any formula feel more open and luminous.

What it smells like

Soft, fresh jasmine with a citrusy, slightly green lift. It is gentle on the strip but diffusive, and it lingers as a clean floral glow.

How perfumers use it

MDJ is one of the most used materials in perfumery, often at high levels. It lightens florals, freshens colognes and citrus, and gives woody and musky bases a floral shimmer. For more power, try Hedione High Cis alongside it.

Blends well with: Hedione High Cis, Iso E Super / Ambergris Ketone, Bergamot, Musks, Phenyl Ethyl Alcohol.

Equivalent to Hedione

Hedione is Firmenich's trade name for methyl dihydrojasmonate, so this is the same molecule and you can use it 1:1 in a formula. Prefer the original brand? We also stock Hedione DSM Firmenich.
