Ambrofix, an amber molecule at the heart of contemporary perfumery

Ambrofix is a synthetic molecule developed by the Givaudan laboratory. It belongs to the family of amber compounds and is structurally close to ambergris derivatives, a substance of animal origin now very little used in perfumery due to its rarity and ethical considerations. Ambrofix offers a modern and accessible evocation of it.

Its olfactory profile is characterized by an amber warmth, a slightly woody and musky facet, with a discreet marine touch that gives it a certain freshness. Its diffusive power and great persistence make it a base ingredient highly valued by contemporary perfumers.

Ambrofix is now present in numerous commercial compositions, in oriental and amber woody fragrances as well as in florals and fresh marine scents. It often plays the role of fixative and enhancer, amplifying a fragrance's projection while giving it a warm, enveloping signature.
