Symrise |
Dragosantol® Bisabolol and Farnesol Odor: characteristic Use: Dragosantol® contains at least 85 % of d,l-alpha-bisabolol, a monocyclic unsaturated sesquiterpene alcohol. Ingredients of secondary importance are mainly farnesol isomers. Dragosantol® has been shown to possess soothing properties for stressed and sensitive skin. Moreover, body odor control effectiveness has been demonstrated both for d,l-alpha-bisabolol and for Dragosantol®.Dragosantol® is suitable for use in cosmetic products due to its stability and good compatibility to the skin. The main areas of application for Dragosantol® are skin care cosmetic preparations, in particular lotions and creams for sensitive skin. Unlike Azulen or camomile oil, Dragosantol® does not alter its color after long storage periods nor diffuse through plastic containers; therefore it can be used without problems. |
Symrise |
Farnesol Plus Odor: characteristic Use: Farnesol Plus is a nature identical, synergistic complex of active ingredients with deodorising properties. Farnesol Plus is composed of Farnesol, Phenoxyethanol, Glycerine monolaurate. |
Symrise |
Farnesol special Odor: very mild and delicate green floral odor with typical lily of the valley character Use: Stable in: body lotion (very good), shampoo (good), soap (good), ap roll-on (poor), powder (poor), cleaner citric (poor), cleaner apc (very good), bleach (poor). Flavor: sweet, flowery, juicy Useful in: mint, fruity citrus, fruity red, fruity yellow, fruity tropical, fruity others, sweet others, alcoholics. |

IFRA FLAVOR REQUIREMENTS: | |||
Due to the possible ingestion of small amounts of fragrance ingredients from their use in products in Categories 1 and 6, materials must not only comply with IFRA Standards but must also be recognized as safe as a flavoring ingredient as defined by the IOFI Code of Practice (www.iofi.org). For more details see chapter 1 of the Guidance for the use of IFRA Standards. | |||
