Fresh. Transparent. Floral. The notes in our Beyond Muguet collection are the result of more than 30 years of groundbreaking work to discover novel muguet (lily-of-the-valley) molecules – and we’re not done yet.
At dsm-firmenich, our unique research program embodies our creative approach to new ingredient development. The genius designs of our scientists are elevated by the talent of our perfumers, crafting solutions that complement our existing florals palette while anticipating and responding to regulatory challenges.
With our nuanced range of muguets, we help customers enhance naturality and freshness to take every composition to the next level.
