You can never have too many fruity and fresh materials and the marine quality of this formate from IFF makes it an extra interesting product. Aphermate is, first and foremost, fruit (apple to be precise) followed by hints of pine tree and the seashore. It is a lovely material to add interest to the more classic freshies such as Calone and Cascalone. It also has an unusual opening note that hints at burnt plastic. Aphermate blends well with the Rose Ketones, Ethyl Safranate, Theaspirane, Amazonia, and Verdantol.
