Beta Damascone (β-Damascone) is a signature rosy–fruity note with juicy facets of green apple, blackcurrant, and plum, touched by hints of black tea, honey, and soft woods. Even at very low levels it brings naturalness, clarity, and depth across many olfactive families.

In rose formulas, Beta Damascone blooms quickly, “lifting” the petals, boosting realism and diffusion without turning candy-sweet. In fruit structures it adds fleshiness and a fresh green sheen, preventing flatness and extending the aftertaste. In woody–tobacco themes it lends a gentle, velvety smokiness for added warmth and elegance.

It is especially useful for “refreshing” compositions that feel heavy or murky: just a few drops will open the space, increase airiness, and brighten the heart. Expect strong diffusion, long-lasting tenacity, and durable performance in perfumes, body mists, and scented candles.

Pairing suggestions: excels with Rose Oxide, Phenethyl Alcohol, Geraniol, and Citronellol for floral effects; with Blackcurrant Bud Absolute, cassis bases, and cis-3-Hexenol for green-fruity profiles; and with Iso E Super, Ambroxan, Tobacco Absolute, and tea notes for warm depth. A light vanillic touch (Vanillin/Ethyl Vanillin) can soften the edges while preserving freshness.

Recommended use level: 0.01–0.3% in fine fragrance to avoid overpowering other notes; adjust to suit style and application. Start very low and build up, as Beta Damascone has a pronounced threshold and a strong “theme-defining” influence.

Properties & handling: soluble in ethanol and common fragrance carriers; insoluble in water. Pre-dilute before weighing into a formula for better control and more objective evaluation.

At SCENT, our Beta Damascone is selected for professional perfumery: clean, clearly profiled, and easy to pair with both classic florals and modern constructions (fruity-green, woody-amber, tea–tobacco). A “small but mighty” piece to elevate naturalness and sophistication in your compositions.
