Ambrexolide (Musk)
Ambrexolide is a synthetic musk that brings a smooth, clean scent with a soft powdery quality. Its scent is subtle and comforting, often likened to the fresh warmth of skin. Ambrexolide enhances a fragrance’s base, adding longevity and a gentle radiance without overpowering the composition, making it a popular ingredient in both floral and woody perfumes.
History & Production: Ambrexolide is a macrocyclic musk, developed synthetically to replicate the complex aroma of natural musk. Its production involves intricate chemical synthesis, offering a sustainable and cruelty-free alternative to animal-derived musk. Introduced in the late 20th century, it is now widely used in modern perfumery for its versatility and long-lasting effects.
