Bacdanol

Product Overview

From the heart of Kannauj, India — the Perfume Capital of India — Shiva Exports India presents our premium-grade Bacdanol, an exceptional synthetic aroma chemical that delivers a powerful, warm, and highly realistic sandalwood character to professional fragrance formulations. Bridging the gap between our region's centuries-old olfactory heritage and modern synthetic aroma chemistry, we source and supply this highly tenacious base note to meet the rigorous standards of global perfumery and industrial cosmetic manufacturing. For B2B buyers seeking to replicate the rich, creamy depth of East Indian Sandalwood with absolute batch-to-batch consistency and price stability, our Bacdanol stands as an indispensable cornerstone of the modern perfumer's palette.

🌿 Olfactory Profile & Applications

As a premier sandalwood-type aroma chemical, Bacdanol exhibits a remarkably linear, rich, and creamy woody profile that functions primarily as a highly substantive base note. It is characterized by its outstanding tenacity, lasting for over 400 hours on a smelling strip, while imparting a warm, smooth, and slightly amber-flecked sandalwood aroma. Unlike less refined synthetics, it lacks any harsh chemical top notes, offering instead a clean, velvety, and natural-feeling woodiness from initial dry-down to the deep tail of the evaporation curve.

This structural versatility makes it highly sought after across multiple industrial applications:

• Fine Fragrances: Acts as a key modifier and fixative in oriental, woody, chypres, and fougère accords.
• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Adds a luxurious, creamy woody base to lotions, creams, and hair care formulations without causing product discoloration.
• Soap & Detergent Manufacturing: Highly stable in high-pH environments, preserving its olfactory integrity in both cold-process soaps and heavy-duty laundry detergents.
• Home Fragrances: Excellent performance in candle wax and reed diffusers, facilitating exceptional cold and hot throw.

📖 Usage & Formulation Guide

Our master perfumers recommend the following formulation guidelines for integrating Bacdanol into commercial batches:

• Fine Fragrance Formulations: Utilize Bacdanol at 1% to 5% of the fragrance concentrate to boost natural sandalwood accords, enhance volume, and increase overall formulation tenacity. It acts as an exceptional fixative for volatile top notes.
• Synergistic Blends: Combine Bacdanol with Cedarwood Essential Oil, Patchouli, or Vetiver to create complex, robust woody bases. When paired with floral absolutes like Rose or Jasmine, it softens sharp edges and introduces a warm, sensual, creamy undertone.
• Soap & Detergent Applications: Incorporate at 0.5% to 2.0% in soap formulations. Bacdanol is highly stable in cold process soap making, exhibiting zero discoloration and excellent alkali resistance, maintaining its warm woody profile throughout the curing phase.
• Cosmetic Emulsions: For body lotions and face creams, a dilution of 0.1% to 0.5% is sufficient to impart a premium, subtle luxury scent profile while remaining safe under IFRA dermatological guidelines.
