Product Description

Longifolene oil is a naturally derived tricyclic sesquiterpene extracted from pine resin, prized in the fragrance industry for its rich, woody, amber-pine character. Identified by CAS No. 475-20-7 (C₁₅H₂₄, MW 204.35), longifolene oil is obtained through fractional distillation of turpentine sourced from Masson pine, yielding a pale, oily liquid with excellent tenacity and fixative strength. As a natural aroma raw material, it is favored by perfumers building base notes with depth, longevity, and a forest-like resinous quality. Beyond its scent profile, longifolene oil also serves as a valuable chemical intermediate, forming the backbone for a range of synthetic fragrance derivatives. We supply longifolene oil with consistent purity and stable batch-to-batch quality, giving fragrance houses, cosmetic manufacturers, and industrial buyers a dependable raw material for both direct application and downstream synthesis.
