Clean, creamy cosmetic musk with a floral tint

Scent Profile

Globanone smells of a clean, elegant musk with a cosmetic, face-cream softness. A creamy, floral tint sits over it, and a soft powdery warmth runs underneath. A balsamic roundness and a faint waxy note fill out the base. It is fresher and less animal than the velvety musks, and it lasts a very long time.

How the layers join

Origin

Globanone is a macrocyclic musk ketone, cyclohexadec-8-en-1-one, made by Symrise. It is a synthetic aroma molecule with a 16-carbon ring. It shares its ring with ambretone (Velvione) and differs in the position of the double bond.

Usage in Perfumery

Perfumers use it as a fixative and to add volume to a composition. Symrise says it gives a rich, voluminous and balsamic rounding effect. Suppliers give use levels from 1 to 20 percent.
