2,6-Dimethoxy Phenol | 91-10-1

Description :

Overview of 2,6-Dimethoxyphenol

2,6-Dimethoxyphenol, also known as Syringol, is a white to off-white crystalline powder with a powerful smoky, phenolic odor and medicinal, creamy vanilla taste. Naturally found in wood smoke from lignin pyrolysis, it delivers exceptional 356-hour substantivity making it ideal for long-lasting fragrance bases. With formula C8H10O3, this high-strength aroma chemical (recommend 1% dilution) adds authentic burnt wood, tobacco, and leather character to sophisticated compositions.​

Perfumers prize it for enhancing smoky incense, aged leather, and gourmand tobacco accords while flavorists use it sparingly for savory meaty depth.​
