Overview of Methyl Nonyl Acetaldehyde 

Methyl Nonyl Acetaldehyde (Aldehyde C-12 MNA or 2-Methylundecanal) is a classic aroma chemical famous for its bright, clean, and powerful scent. It is an indispensable ingredient for creating modern and elegant fragrances in perfumery, cosmetics, and personal care products.

In appearance, it is a colourless to pale yellow liquid with a powerful, waxy, citrus-floral odour, often compared to orange peel and lily of the valley. Its powerful and diffusive character adds a signature "lift" and sparkle to any formulation, making it a favourite among perfumers.
