​ODOWELL Recommends 3,6-Ivy Carbaldehyde for Intensely Green and Tart Citrus Fragrance Applications




3,6-Ivy Carbaldehyde, CAS No. 67801-65-4, chemically known as 3,6-dimethyl-3-cyclohexene-1-carbaldehyde and commercially recognized as Vertoliff, is a synthetic fragrance and flavor ingredient characterized by an intensely green, tart citrus odor with pronounced aldehydic sparkle and fresh herbal facets. This multi-dimensional profile makes it a valuable building block for contemporary fresh, green, and citrus-forward fragrance development.

From an olfactory perspective, 3,6-Ivy Carbaldehyde offers a crisp, natural green character enriched by tart citrus rind freshness and herbal nuances. The resulting "green + tart citrus + aldehydic" structure provides both lasting depth and a luminous, energizing quality, ideal for modern, radiant fragrance structures and a key ingredient for building contemporary fresh and green compositions.


In fine fragrance, 3,6-Ivy Carbaldehyde is commonly used in fresh, green, citrus, floral, and herbal accords. It enhances diffusion, longevity, and overall transparency while blending well with woody, amber, and other floral materials to create more three-dimensional and sophisticated fragrance structures.


Beyond perfumery, 3,6-Ivy Carbaldehyde is suitable for functional fragrance applications, including personal care, hair care, soaps, detergents, fabric softeners, air fresheners, scented candles, and home fragrance products. Its fresh green character combined with tart citrus and herbal nuances contributes to a clean, comfortable, and long-lasting sensory impression in everyday consumer products.


ODOWELL continues to focus on aroma ingredients with clear olfactory identity and practical formulation value. With its green, tart, citrus, herbal, cortex, and aldehydic profile, excellent diffusion, and strong substantivity, 3,6-Ivy Carbaldehyde is a useful ingredient for modern fine fragrance, personal care, and home care fragrance development.
