    Geosmin is the chemical responsible for the smell of freshly turned soil and spring rain. It is one of the most powerful chemicals in nature and it is familiar to everyone, often eliciting shouts of glee from non-perfumers who thrill at the ability of a perfumer to bottle such a beloved smell.

    It is diluted here to 1% in DPG but is still very powerful; it is often used at 0.1% or even 0.01% in fragrances and blends. Traces add a natural earthiness and inimitable quality to patchouli or vetiver scents, while a very careful overdose gives interesting effects.

    Geosmin is a radiant and adds power and diffusion to any fragrance.

    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.

    IFRA Standards

    Permitted amounts in finished product:

    IFRA 51: 100%
    IFRA 49: 100%

    These are derived from calculated concentrations which do not replace chromatographic quantification on individual lots. Disclaimer...

    For Trade Use Only

    Our products are intended as building blocks in the perfume creation process; they are not to be applied to the skin undiluted.

    These raw materials are for use by the perfumery trade only.

    Adjusting Beautifully

    As described in the product description, it has the scent of freshly tilled soil or the air after rain, evoking a certain sense of comfort. It also has an ink-like aroma, and I find myself using it in compositions more frequently than I expected. You can expect a calm, lingering diffusion from top to base notes.

    If you like Petrichor, this is the main ingredient that makes Petrichor…well, Petrichor. It’s absolutely amazing and the price is well justified.

    An Earthy Essential

    This Geosmin offered by Fraterworks provides a highly realistic and natural earth and soil smell without any harshness or abrasiveness attached to it.

    The unmistakeable quality and smoothness makes it a useful tool for blending in many compositions. I find myself reaching for this more often than I thought I would.
