Description
Gamma-Terpinene (99%) is a naturally occurring terpene found in several essential oils, particularly those derived from citrus peels and aromatic herbs. In perfumery it is appreciated for its fresh, citrusy, and slightly herbal character, accompanied by subtle green and terpenic nuances that evoke the brightness of natural citrus materials.
The material typically appears as a clear, colorless liquid with low viscosity, and is valued for its lively, volatile freshness that contributes lift and brightness to the top of a fragrance. Its character is crisp and aromatic, helping to introduce a natural citrus-green impression in the opening of a composition.
In practical perfumery, Gamma-Terpinene is often used to support citrus and aromatic accords, and blends well with lemon, lime, orange oils, herbal materials such as rosemary and thyme, and other terpene-based ingredients. Thanks to its fresh citrusy brightness, it is commonly encountered in fresh fragrances, aromatic compositions, and functional fragrances such as air care and household products.
