NAME phenethyl alcohol
ORIGIN isolated from the bark and branches of the Chinese Cinnamon tree.
INCI phenethyl alcohol

The phenethyl alcohol present in our products is a multifunctional natural additive. It is obtained by isolating the bark and branches of the Chinese Cinnamon tree. We like it for its delicate rose scent which helps to mask undesirable odors of raw materials and/or which can complete the fragrance of the formulation. In addition, phenethyl alcohol has good antimicrobial activity and offers solvation properties. It is therefore a natural reinforcing agent and an ideal solvent for water-based products. Phenethyl alcohol is bio-compatible.
