ISO E SUPER

Iso E Super is a synthetic aromatic compound renowned as one of the most versatile odor molecules in modern perfumery. Widely used across fragrances, it acts as a booster, enhancing longevity, clarifying scent notes, and creating a hyperreal olfactory experience. It delivers smooth, woody, and amber-like notes reminiscent of sandalwood and cedarwood, providing a “velvet-like” sensation. Iso E Super imparts depth and subtle strength to compositions, aligning with olfactory categories such as musk, amber, and animalic.
Properties: This molecule is synthetically derived, partly from pinene, a by-product of the wood industry. Its exceptional versatility, particularly its ability to smooth and soften fragrances for a velvety finish, makes it a staple in perfumery. Beyond perfumes, Iso E Super is commonly included in products like soaps, detergents, and fabric softeners due to its adhesive and substantive nature, which enhances its performance in functional applications.
Alternate Names: Iso E Super is also known as Tetramethyl acetyloctahydronaphthalenes, OTNE, Iso Gamma Super, Anthamber, Amber Fleur, Boisvelone, Iso Ambois, Amberlan, Iso Velvetone, Orbitone, Amberonne, and Patchouli Ethanone.
Applications: Iso E Super is widely incorporated into various products, including surface cleaners, laundry detergents, air fresheners, candles, cosmetics, and perfumes, due to its effectiveness as a scent booster.
