Indole (10% in DPG) – A Powerful Floral Animalic Accent | Bio Shop™ Pakistan
Indole (10% in DPG) is a potent aroma chemical that adds depth, mystery, and sensuality to floral accords, especially jasmine and orange blossom. At low concentrations, it lends a narcotic, natural feel to floral perfumes, while at higher levels, it creates musky, animalic, or even exotic leather notes. Diluted in Dipropylene Glycol, it’s easier and safer to use in fine fragrances, soaps, and cosmetic formulations. Essential for building classic, vintage, or seductive floral compositions.
