Anisyl Alcohol
Description
Anisyl Alcohol adds volume and gives a natural aspect to floral compositions such as mimosa, lilac, cassia, apple-blossom, jasmine and heliotrope as well as to clover and fougère perfumes. It has an excellent blending effect and can give a heliotropic character without the problem of colouration.
