Tabanon

About Tabanon

Tabanon is a perfumery material offered by Symrise, with a warm character associated with tobacco. It is used in tobacco-style and woody compositions. The name identifies a specific aromatic material rather than an unmodified extract of tobacco leaves. It gives a perfumer a relatively defined way of introducing the tobacco idea into a formula.

Scent Profile

The material suggests dry tobacco leaf with the warmth of dried fruit and woods. Its character is more closely associated with the sweetness and depth of dried leaves than with a strong smoke effect. Resinous or leathery surroundings can deepen its shadow, while floral and sweeter ingredients can carry it into a softer trail.

Use in Perfumery

It can support tobacco, woody and amber compositions. Alongside rounded ingredients such as tonka bean, it contributes a dry leaf nuance and additional fruity depth. Its strength within a finished perfume depends on the quantity used and the materials around it. The persistence of an ingredient alone does not establish a fixed duration for the finished fragrance on skin.

Did You Know?

Tobacco effects can be made with botanical extracts, combinations of several ingredients or a particular aromatic material such as this one. Those routes produce different balances of dryness, sweetness and smoke. Preserving the material name helps distinguish the means used to build the tobacco character.
