Overview of Musk Xylene

 

Musk Xylene is also referred to as Musk Xylol. It is a synthetic, nitro musk chemical that has been praised for its sweet, strong, and musky scent. It's been utilized over the years in the fragrance and perfume business as a fixing agent, making perfumes last longer and retain their fragrance. Musk Xylene can be described as a crystal solid, with a distinct musk-like powder scent that is similar to natural musk. While its use in cosmetics has declined in some regions due to regulatory restrictions, Musk Xylene is still valued in industrial fragrance formulations, detergents, soaps, and cleaning products. The compound's chemical stability and musky odor make it a reliable ingredient for long-lasting fragrance applications. At ChemicalBull, we supply high-quality Musk Xylene to meet the needs of industries across fragrance, household, and specialty chemical applications.
