WHAT IS HYDROFLEUR?
Hydrofleur is a Colorless to pale yellow liquid that i had the pleasure to first sniff at WPC (world Perfumery Congress) 2018 in Nice during a presentation named: “The Past, Present and Future of Signature Perfume Ingredients,” where Robert Bedoukian, CEO of Bedoukian, demonstrated the ingredient, which can be used at levels as low as 1% that of traditional ingredients in formulations.
Of course, it is normal to comapre this to Hydroxycitronellal, where Hydrofleur is missing a little bit of opening in the topnote but globally the floralcy is there. Tested on Chanel 5 type formulation.
