Ketone 101 (liquid)

Ketone 101 is a synthetic aromatic ketone commonly used in the fragrance industry. It appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a strong, sweet, floral-woody odor, often described as musky and long-lasting. It has low water solubility but is readily soluble in organic solvents such as alcohols and fragrance oils. The compound shows good chemical stability and low volatility, making it suitable for long-lasting scent applications.
In terms of applications, Ketone 101 is widely used in perfumery as a fixative and base note enhancer, providing depth and persistence to fragrance compositions. It is commonly used in perfumes, soaps, detergents, air fresheners, and personal care products. It also blends well with floral, woody, and musky accords, improving overall fragrance complexity. Additionally, it is used in industrial fragrance formulations where long-lasting odor retention is required. Its stability and strong odor performance make it valuable in modern fragrance chemistry.
