Summarized by Shop
Ionone beta is the sweetest of the ionones, having aspects of red berries, tropical fruit and beeswax. It is the chemical that plays the biggest role in giving Boronia its wonderful scent and is indispensable in recreations of the same. It serves a minor role in many other florals and is valuable as a nuancer for wood blends.

Fruity floral perfection
This is a gorgeous sweet, fruity floral material which could be worn on its own as a complete fragrance. To me, it is rather more indefinable red berries, with a little violet/iris floralcy in the background. It is useful in all kinds of red fruit accords, and would help connect fruity and floral accords.
