About this material
Isolraldeine 95 by Givaudan is known for its fine violet note, but its character is more powdery than Isoraldeine 70.
It is commonly used in flowery, woody, spicy, and oriental accords.
This material adds volume and diffusion to compounds, while also providing a skin care effect and good overall substantivity.

Generic regulatory reference only. This is not a supplier allergen declaration, measured composition, allergen-free claim or finished-product labelling assessment.
Raw-material reference based on recorded CAS numbers. A CAS match identifies a reference entry; it does not verify the supplied grade, composition, purity or finished-product compliance. Naturals, bases and mixtures require composition review.

CAS numbers (comment): The scope of this Standard includes, but is not limited to the CAS number(s) indicated above; any other CAS number(s) used to identify these fragrance ingredients should be considered in scope as well.
Contributions from other sources: None to consider
Flavor use consideration: Due to the possible ingestion of small amounts of fragrance ingredients from their use in products in Categories 1 and 6, materials must not only comply with IFRA Standards but must also be recognized as safe as a flavoring ingredient as defined by the IOFI Code of Practice (www.iofi.org). For more details see chapter 1 of the Guidance for the use of IFRA Standards.
IFRA Standard type: RESTRICTION_SPECIFICATION
Intrinsic property driving the risk management measure: DERMAL SENSITIZATION
Restricted ingredients: notes: The above limits apply to Methyl ionone isomers used individually or in combination.
Specified ingredients: notes: Pseudo methyl ionones (CAS numbers 26651-96-7, 72968-25-3, 1117-41-5) should not be used as fragrance ingredient as such. A level of up to 2% of Pseudo methyl ionones as an impurity in Methyl ionones is accepted.

Creative ideas to explore
Creative directions, not tested formulas.Petals and peel
With bergamot and a light citrus ideaExplore a brighter version of the floral character using a simple citrus counterpoint. Compare it with the unchanged flower accord and note whether the citrus frames the bloom or becomes the main subject of the sketch.
Stem and blossom
With geranium and leafy notesSketch the flower with a greener setting, keeping leaf and blossom as distinct ideas. Compare a clean floral reference with the greener version to decide how much of the imagined stem and garden belongs in the composition.
Petals over wood
With a transparent wood directionPlace the floral material against a spare wood backdrop and follow the balance through the evaluation. Try a softer wood variation separately, then choose whether your flower needs an open, airy setting or a smoother, more enveloping frame.
