In North America, strong performance in the construction sector and increased commercial activities in February and March drove up demand, resulting in higher prices. This was despite initial slowdowns caused by adverse weather conditions and rising production costs in January.

Conversely, in Asia, particularly India, prices declined early in the year due to reduced demand from the paint and coating industries and a seasonal construction slowdown. However, as demand began to recover, there was some price support, though an oversupply of inventories quickly mitigated these gains.

Dihydro myrcenol's applications in fragrances, personal care products, and household cleaners ensure steady demand, yet the volatility in its feedstock supply and regional economic activities have led to mixed market sentiments.

Additionally, economic challenges, including inflation, constrained consumer spending on high-end home fragrances and personal care items, directly affecting dihydro myrcenol demand. Further, an oversupply of the product exaggerated the downturn. In view of this, the profit margins were lowered by manufacturers and traders.

In the APAC region, the regulatory efforts by the Indian government to standardize fragrance products enhanced their global competitiveness and boosted export rates.
