Hello, Does anyone know what is used to create milk chocolate notes? I'm aware of chocolate absolute, but I'd like to find out what is used for scents more akin to milk chocolate in particular (as opposed to dark chocolate). I.e. a creamier perhaps more unisex chocolate than the dustiness/boldness/bitterness of dark chocolate..

I made a chocolate accord awhile back using only ethyl phenyl acetate and vanillin. This is a basic formula for chocolate. You can substitute something else for vanillin-- such as tonka, heliotropin, coumarin, vanilla absolute, ethyl maltol etc and get different nuances. I've never messed around with chocolate absolutes etc-- it's easy to make chocolate out of ethyl phenyl acetate and anything vanillic.
This basic formula gives a chocolate note that is something like hot chocolate. You could add blackcurrant notes to give it a bitterness, or play around with some of the lactone aldehydes to get more of a milkiness.
