safranal
CAS Number: 116-26-7
The statistical data we collected from 5 public perfume formulas suggests that the mean dose for safranal is 0.80%. The typical lower limit is 0.083%, and the usual higher limit is 1.8%. The highest amount of safranal we encountered in any single formula is 1.8%, and the lowest was 0.0020%.
Please note that according to the IFRA Standard Category 4, the level of safranal should not exceed 0.012% of the final product. Assuming that you will be using your formula for an alcoholic perfume at a 10% dilution, this means you should only use safranal at 0.12% or less of the formula.
