Anisic Aldehyde (CAS# 123-11-5) is a classic perfumery ingredient with a sweet, warm, powdery scent reminiscent of anise, almond, and soft white florals. It has a vanillic, slightly balsamic character while still feeling clean and smooth, like fine talc powder, helping to soften and round off the overall impression of a wide range of fragrance compositions.

In fine fragrance, Anisic Aldehyde is typically used as a heart-to-base note, working especially well in floral themes (particularly muguet, hawthorn, mimosa, and white florals), as well as oriental and gourmand structures. Even at low dosage, it adds depth, warmth, and diffusion, giving more “soul” and texture to formulas that might otherwise rely mainly on straightforward floral, fruity, or soapy-clean notes.

Beyond fine fragrance, Anisic Aldehyde is widely used in personal care and home care products such as shower gels, shampoos, body lotions, soaps, detergents, fabric softeners, floor cleaners, air fresheners, and scented candles. It shows good stability in many bases, helping the scent maintain its warm, sweet, powdery character with minimal off-notes, even in mildly alkaline environments or under moderate heat.

In its raw form, Anisic Aldehyde is a clear, pale liquid that dissolves easily in alcohol and common perfumery solvents, and blends well with most essential oils, absolutes, and aroma chemicals. It is an excellent choice for adding a sweet–powdery accent to floral, floral-powdery, soft oriental, and refined gourmand compositions, as well as for rounding and warming formulas that need extra depth while preserving a clean, comfortable feel.
