Galaxolide is a clean and powerful polycyclic musk which, even in extreme overdoses of 40% or more, allows the other materials in a fragrance to shine through. It is a highly appreciated musk by consumers. It adds fixation and exaltation to all fragrances and is frequently blended with other musks which often take the role of modifiers.
“A clean, powerful and versatile iso-chroman musk having exceptional persistence and a superb fragrance quality approaching the tone of macrocyclic musks.” — IFF
Galaxolide is often the single largest aromachemical in luxury fragrance brands such as Tom Ford, Amouage and Creed. It's low cost and popular appeal make it a must-have for all perfumers.
NOTE: pure galaxolide is extremely viscous so it needs heat to make it fluid. For that reason we are selling it here in the standard 50% dilution from IFF as well as pure. Be sure to check your dilution prior to buying.
Fraterworks® is strictly a reseller of this product and is neither an agent nor official distributor for IFF.

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.
