4-metilanizol

Sweet, herbaceous-anisic with a faint lavender quality. 4-Methylanisole smells like an old-fashioned herbalist's shop — dried lavender, anise seeds, and a hint of dusty wood.

U parfemima
Background modifier in aromatic, herbal, and lavender compositions. 4-Methylanisole adds quiet anisic-herbal sweetness at low concentrations. It can smooth rough edges in herbal accords, supports lavender bases, and provide a subtle sweet undertone in aromatic fougères. Not a standalone note — it functions as part of larger herbal constructions. Usage is typically at trace levels.
