Salicylate

Salicylate is a fragrant compound commonly used in perfumery for its sweet, floral, and slightly balsamic aroma. Derived from salicylic acid, it imparts a warm, powdery quality that enhances the smoothness of perfumes. Often found in natural essential oils like wintergreen and sweet birch, salicylates add richness and depth to floral, fruity, and spicy fragrance compositions. Their subtle medicinal undertones can create sophisticated and comforting scent profiles, making them valuable in both classic and modern perfumery blends.
