Cinnamic Alcohol

Cinnamic Alcohol – An Overview

Cinnamic Alcohol is an organic substance that is valued due to its warm, balsamic, and floral aromatic character, which reminds of hyacinths. It is found naturally in a number of plant resins and is an essential building block in the fragrance and flavour sectors. In perfumery, it is also used as an elegant fixative in addition to its pleasant aroma, to extend the evaporation of more volatile fragrances. Regulatory agencies such as IFRA and FDA acknowledge the use of Cinnamic Alcohol as a safe substance in consumer products as long as it is used within the stipulated concentration levels because it is a mild sensitizer.

Botany:-

Cinnamic alcohol occurs in nature as an esterified form, mostly in a number of balsams and resins. It is particularly found in Styrax (grown by trees of the genus Liquidambar) and Peru Balsam (Myroxylon balsamum). The compound is part of the typical sweet, resinous smell that has been used in incense and traditional medicine in these plants, centuries old.

In the case of industrial high-purity needs, Cinnamic Alcohol is commonly obtained by the hydrolysis of naturally occurring cinnamaldehyde esters, or by the reduction of cinnamaldehyde under controlled conditions. This guarantees a uniform and quality material that is of high standards of the contemporary cosmetic and foods industry.

Cinnamic Alcohol Benefits

• A very good fixative, which increases the stability of floral fragrance and oriental fragrance compositions.
• Offers a natural, sweet floral note, which is challenging to duplicate with other single-molecule aromatics.
• Shows weak antimicrobial effects, and this helps to preserve cosmetic formulations.
• Provides a warm, spicy background that goes well with gourmand and balsamic fragrances.

Cinnamic Alcohol Uses

• Broadly applied in fine fragrances, soaps and lotions to provide hyacinth and lilac-like fragrances.
• Applied to the flavour sector to offer cinnamon and fruity tastes in the confectionery and beverage sector.
• Used as a feed in the production of other high-value aroma chemicals and esters.
• Applied in personal care items such as deodorants and detergents due to its stable and strong scent profile.
• The manufacturers and industrial buyers of these industries are more likely to buy Cinnamic Alcohol in large quantities through well known manufacturers and wholesale suppliers.

Product Variations

Cinnamaldehyde, Methyl Cinnamate, Styrax Resinoid and Cassia Oil are also other related aromatic compounds that Aromaaz International supplies to industries that need balsamic and spicy raw materials.

Cinnamic mixes well with

Cinnamic Alcohol mixes well with floral oils such as Rose, Jasmine and Ylang-Ylang. It is also used as a complement with woody aromas like Sandalwood and Patchouli and spicy oils like Clove and Cardamom.

A Word of Caution

• Being a Cinnamic Alcohol manufacturer, we recommend the following safety measures to be taken when using it:
• It is a known skin sensitizer; therefore, use it topically only in diluted form and perform a patch test.
• Do not come into direct contact with eyes and mucous membranes in its concentrated form.
• Keep out of strong oxidizing agents to avoid chemical degradation.

Storage Instructions

• Keep Cinnamic Alcohol in a tight-capped, airtight, amber glass or stainless steel container in a cool, dry, and dark location.
• Since it is a thick liquid, which can crystallize during lower temperatures (melting point 33–35°C), it might need to be warmed down to be used.
• It should be stored properly to avoid oxidation and preserve its fine floral-balsamic nature.
