Through this division, we ensure that we offer innovative and customized solutions for the fragrance industry, providing both natural and synthetic ingredients tailored to the needs of each customer and final product.
Aromatic chemicals are substances used to modify, intensify, or create aromas in products from various sectors, including cosmetics, cleaning products, home care, food and beverages, and many other applications. These compounds may include synthetic essences, essential oils, aldehydes, esters, terpenes, ketones, and a variety of other chemical ingredients. The ability to develop products with these specific substances allows for the creation of unique fragrances that meet consumer standards and international regulations.
What are aromatic chemicals?
Aromatic chemicals are substances obtained from plants, flowers, fruits, spices, and also from synthetic processes, which have the ability to modify or create aromas in products. These ingredients are used to enrich fragrances and give them complexity, stability, and durability. They are crucial for the creation of products such as perfumes, air fresheners, cosmetics, cleaning products, and many other applications.
In fragrance manufacturing, aromatic chemicals are used in the formulation of complex olfactory pyramids, which allow for the development of fragrances that vary in intensity and duration. The top, middle, and base notes of a fragrance depend on the correct mixture of these compounds. Thanks to advanced technology and continuous innovation processes, Grupo Lozmar ensures that each ingredient meets the highest standards of quality and purity.
Featured Products from the Aromatic Chemicals Division
1. Aromatic Aldehydes
Aldehydes are organic compounds that have a strong impact on fragrances, giving them fresh, floral, or citrus notes. They are widely used to create perfumes with a distinctive note that can range from fruity to floral. In the fine fragrance industry, aldehydes play a fundamental role in creating sophisticated scents.
Examples of products that use aldehydes include high-end perfumes and luxury air fresheners. These aldehydes allow the fragrance to remain intact for hours, ensuring a long-lasting olfactory experience. The famous Chanel No. 5 perfume, for example, uses aldehydes to create a sensation of freshness and complexity, a characteristic that sets haute couture fragrances apart.
2. Aromatic Esters
Esters are chemical compounds known for their intense fruity and floral notes, making them a key ingredient in the creation of fresh and sweet fragrances. Esters are commonly used to impart notes of fruit, flowers, and other pleasant aromas in cosmetic and personal care products.
At Grupo Lozmar, esters are used in the creation of citrus, fruity, and floral fragrances, which are popular in products such as body lotions, liquid soaps, shampoos, and air fresheners. A specific example would be ethyl acetate, which adds an apple or pineapple scent to perfumes and cleaning products.
3. Terpenes
Terpenes are organic compounds found mainly in essential oils and are responsible for the fresh, woody, citrus, or floral aromas in fragrances. These compounds are extracted from various natural sources, such as tree bark, resin, fruits, flowers, and plant leaves.
Grupo Lozmar uses terpenes in products from its personal care division and commercial air fresheners, where their ability to provide freshness and a natural feel is highly valued. Limonene, a terpene found in citrus peel, is a classic example used in products such as air fresheners and cleaners, thanks to its strong orange aroma and disinfecting properties.
4. Aromatic Ketones
Ketones are volatile organic compounds that have a sweet, floral, or fruity aroma and are commonly used in the creation of floral or fruity fragrances. Ketones can contribute significantly to the creation of sophisticated perfumes that require a complex structure.
In Grupo Lozmar products, ketones such as musk ketone are used in the formulation of long-lasting floral or oriental fragrances, which are popular in the creation of niche perfumes and luxury products. Ketones are also used in cosmetic products to provide soft, warm notes that enhance the sensory experience.
5. Aromatic Alcohols
Aromatic alcohols are compounds that play an essential role in the stability and fixation of fragrances. These compounds not only contribute to the olfactory notes, but also allow fragrances to linger longer on the skin or in the air.
