About

Mugane is a captive floral molecule from MANE. It gives a bright, transparent lily-of-the-valley effect with no indolic weight, built for a market where the older muguet materials are banned.

Scent Profile

Mugane smells like a clean, transparent lily of the valley, bright and radiant with no dark indolic weight. A general floral roundness sits under it, with a green, cut stem freshness running through, closer to the living plant than to soapy old muguet bases. A light, dewy air gives it a wet petal quality, cold and white rather than warm. It carries a faint watery, ozonic freshness, like cool air around the petals.

Mugane

Smell words come from published sources.

A given perfume with this note may use this material, or something else.

Origin

A synthetic captive held by MANE. Its CAS number and structure are undisclosed, so nobody outside the house can check the odour claims against the chemistry. It exists because Convallaria majalis is a mute flower: it yields no essential oil or absolute at commercial scale, so every muguet in perfumery is reconstructed. Lyral was banned in 2021 and Lilial in 2022, which made a replacement for the older muguet workhorses commercially urgent.

Usage in Perfumery

A heart-note building block for muguet reconstructions, white floral accords and any transparent composition that needs radiant florality without heaviness. It is used as a high-power alternative to hydroxycitronellal and to the banned Lyral, giving floral density and radiance without weight.
