(E)-beta-damascone
CAS Number: 23726-91-2
The statistical data we collected from 29 public perfume formulas suggests that the mean dose for (E)-beta-damascone is 0.20%. The typical lower limit is 0.050%, and the usual higher limit is 1.0%. The highest amount of (E)-beta-damascone we encountered in any single formula is 13%, and the lowest was 0.00020%.
Please note that according to the IFRA Standard Category 4, the level of (E)-beta-damascone should not exceed 0.043% of the final product. Assuming that you will be using your formula for an alcoholic perfume at a 10% dilution, this means you should only use (E)-beta-damascone at 0.43% or less of the formula.
