    Vetiver Acetate is one of the most popular zizanoides products which is frequently blended with fine vetiver oil for a softening effect or used on its own as a fresh, long lasting and modern vetiver note.

    There are two types of the acetate: Vetiver Acetate and Vetiveryl Acetate. The first (this product) is produced from Vetiverol (a mix of vetiver alcohols) which is extracted from the Vetiver roots prior to the acetylation process. The second, Vetiveryl acetate is produced by direct acetylation of the whole Vetiver essential oil and contains more accessory alcohols so it has a slightly higher IFRA limit and a more complex drydown. It is also slightly lower in price.

    Our vetiver acetate from MANE (reference 53281) is more sheer and diffusive than most and is the star of Frater Perfumes' best selling Vetiver fragrance and Molecule 03 by Escentric Molecules. When other Vetiver Acetates fade away, this astonishingly good version keeps going and going. It has a presence and a royal quality that absolutely justifies its higher price point.

    This Vetiver Acetate has a woody character with spicy and citrus nuances. This makes for a more interesting inclusion in fragrances and far more lively blends with aroma chemicals likeĀ Iso E Super, Lorysia and Vertofix Coeur. This is the closest you can get to the famed Acetivenol of times gone by.

    NOTE: under IFRA 52 (in draft), vetiveryl acetate and vetiver acetate must be fortified with 1% Tocopherol. Our vetiver acetate is not (yet) so you should do this yourself when planning for IFRA 52 compliance.

    Blend it with Guerlain's favourite Vetiver Bourbon oil and the esteemed naturalĀ Vetiverol ex Vetiver Haiti asĀ used in No 5 by Ernest Beaux for Chanel. Or blend it in a one to one ratio with Mysore sandalwood oil like Bois Des Ǝles (14% of each in the original formula).

    Odour Profile

    Vetiver Acetate presents a refined, smooth woody character with sweet, dry facets and a distinctive bright grapefruit-like freshness, elegantly capturing vetiver's core identity without its harsher or intensely earthy aspects.

    Uses

    Creates sophisticated woody accords as an exceptional fixative in fine fragrance, providing exceptional tenacity and a modern vetiver interpretation.

    General Information

    Like most suppliers and makers ofĀ quality raw materials for fragrances, we do not filter many of our products. This ensures that no odiferous matter is lostĀ prior to use butĀ can result inĀ 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 detritusĀ and is the industry norm.

    IFRA Standards

    Permitted amounts in finished product:

    IFRA 51: 0.9%
    IFRA 49: 0.9%

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