Description
Description
Triethyl citrate is a nearly neutral solvent and diluent, valued for improving the handling, distribution, and integration of fragrance materials. Unlike an aroma molecule, its greatest strength lies in what it does not add: it allows for the dilution and incorporation of compatible materials without introducing the heavier scent of more noticeable carriers. In professional formulation, it is frequently used as a functional carrier and fixative when a clean, low-odor base is required.
Scent Profile: A nearly odorless material with only a very faint, soft ester-like sweetness. Triethyl citrate is not intended to create a recognizable scent note; instead, it provides a clean and discreet base that supports the controlled dosage, blending, and evaporation of aromatic materials.
