What are the benefits?

  • Aromatic Compound: Alpha isomethyl ionone provides a natural perfuming effect with a sweet, orris-like scent. 
  • Gentle: It has a low skin sensitization profile and offers skin conditioning qualities. 
  • Longevity: It can retain its scent for a long time, so products maintain their aroma throughout the day. 
  • Aromatherapy: The scent of violets is associated with calmness and well-being, which can potentially uplift the user's mood.
