Fresh jasmine, radiant

Scent Profile

Hedione has a fresh, transparent floral scent reminiscent of jasmine, with subtle green and citrus nuances. It is noted for its radiant, airy quality and ability to impart a diffusive, almost luminous effect in a composition. Over time, it maintains a clean, soft floral impression without becoming heavy or indolic.

Origin

Hedione is a synthetic aroma compound, chemically known as methyl dihydrojasmonate. It was first identified in jasmine absolute and is now produced industrially through organic synthesis for use in perfumery.

Usage in Perfumery

Perfumers use Hedione primarily in the heart of floral compositions to enhance diffusion and add a naturalistic jasmine effect. It blends well with other florals, citrus, and green notes, and is valued for its ability to lift and modernise both feminine and masculine fragrances.
