Profile

Methyl Jasmonate is curated in this catalog as an airy floral material, with a secondary reading of heady floral.

On the strip it reads warm jasmine fruity floral.

It is registered under CAS 39924-52-2.

The catalog records an average working dose of 5% Max%, which is a starting point for a trial rather than a limit.

How it behaves

volatility index 0.44 · the base

A boiling point of 302.5 °C and a molecular weight of 224.3 g/mol give Methyl Jasmonate a volatility index of 0.44, which places it in the base of a composition.

It evaporates slowly and anchors the drydown, still readable on skin hours after the top notes have gone.

The index runs from 0 for a material that barely leaves the strip to 1 for one that flashes off, and it is computed from boiling point and molecular weight. Inside a real formula the surrounding materials shift where the boundaries fall, so a material can read differently there than it does here.
