Caryophyllene Beta greets you with a dry, dusty woodiness wrapped in warm clove spice. There is something of lacquered church pews about it—sweet, polished, and quietly persistent. The peppery edge fades into a clean, oily-woody drydown that lingers for hours.
This material does serious heavy lifting without demanding attention. Use it to build spicy foundations in orientals and fougères, or to anchor volatile top notes like cinnamic aldehyde that need a fixative partner. It provides an unrestricted clove-like spiciness, making it a practical alternative where eugenol limits become a concern.
Blend Caryophyllene Beta with gum resins and balsams for warm, incense-like depth. Try it alongside black pepper oil and nutmeg for layered spice accords. At low doses it adds woody complexity to florals; pushed higher, it brings a confident, dry spiciness that reads unmistakably masculine.

Caryophyllene Beta shows balanced behaviour with moderate strength (4/10) and proportional impact in blends (4/10). Versatile and predictable to work with.

General Information
General Information
Like most suppliers and makers of quality raw materials for fragrances, we do not filter many of our products. This ensures that no odiferous matter is lost prior to use but can result in the appearance of small particles or slight clouding.
All alcoholic fragrances should be macerated for up to a month and then chilled in a moderate freezer overnight before being filtered fine. This will remove all cloudiness or detritus and is the industry norm.
