Cis-6-Nonenol is a fresh, crisp cucumber note with a dewy green, watery facet-think chilled melon rind with a faint violet-leaf nuance and a lightly saline, leaf-spray effect. It brings a clean, luminous lift at the opening while leaving a cool, transparent trail.

Classified in the green–watery family, Cis-6-Nonenol works from top to mid with gentle yet distinct diffusion and a natural “wet” realism. It excels at brightening muguet, green tea, marine/ozonic, citrus, and herbal themes, or for rinsing heaviness from sweet, dense accords. Tiny amounts sharpen cucumber–leaf effects across fine fragrance, home fragrance, and personal care.

Typical use levels range from a trace up to 0.01–0.20% in concentrate, depending on impact and base. It pairs beautifully with Calone, Helional, Floralozone, Cyclamen Aldehyde, cis-3-Hexenol/hexenyl acetate, Lyral-type accords, sparkling citrus (bergamot, grapefruit), and clean woods (Iso E-type, Cedramber). Ideal for “spa-clean,” “rain-fresh,” cucumber–melon, garden-leaf, and for adding crunch to green florals.

Technically, Cis-6-Nonenol dissolves well in ethanol and common solvents (DPG, TEC, IPM). Being unsaturated, it is oxygen-sensitive: store airtight, away from light, in cool conditions; prefer amber glass or oxygen-barrier packaging, and consider inert-gas blanketing after opening. It is broadly compatible with alcohol bases, room-spray systems, vegetable-wax candles, and wash-off bases, though stability and color should be confirmed per formula.

Olfactively, the cis isomer delivers a softer, more natural cucumber tonality than the trans, making it the choice for authentic, gentle “humid garden” atmospheres. Use it to inject airy freshness, smooth rough edges, and boost a modern, thirst-quenching clarity throughout the composition.
