Information About Aldehyde C9 (Nonanal)

  • Fresh citrus-waxy aldehyde with orange peel brightness
  • Adds sparkle, radiance, and aldehydic lift to top notes
  • Common in aldehydic florals, green mists, fougères, and barbershop colognes
  • Useful for naturalizing citrus or floral openings in both modern and vintage perfumes
  • Soluble in alcohol, oils, and DPG—works in attars, roll-ons, and sprays

Aldehyde C-9 (Nonanal) is a classic fatty aldehyde with a powerful fresh, waxy citrus-floral scent, often compared to orange peel, green florals, and a hint of soapy aldehydic sharpness. It is widely used in perfumery to create lift, radiance, and a clean citrus-floral character, especially in aldehydic florals, classic chypres, fresh mists, and barbershop-style colognes.

Its role is essential in providing top-note brilliance, and it transitions gracefully into floral and musky hearts.
