Z11 HD 992956 (Firmenich)

Z11 HD is a high-purity, sustainable fragrance molecule developed by Firmenich, renowned for its intense, tenacious dry woody aroma with an elegant ambery facet.

This ‘High Definition’ version is a refined iteration of the original Z11, offering enhanced olfactory performance and environmental benefits.

It offers a powerful and persistent dry woody scent with a refined amber touch, surpassing the standard Z11 in cleanliness and intensity.

With a minimum content of 95% of the superior isomer (three times more than the usual quality), this version significantly enhances the sensuality and consistency of fragrances.

Z11 HD 992956 should not be confused with the lesser quality Z11 HD MIP versions also supplied by Firmenich as a dilution in IPM.

This is the pure crystalline version of Z11 HD. It is extremely expensive and the price fluctuates frequently. The lowest price we have seen this, was just under £4,000.00 + VAT per kilo.

Originally made from Manool as a starting material, which was extracted from a tree (Manao) in New Zealand, now produced by biotechnology.
