Effect in a formula

Amber building block
Basic structure
Drydown modifier

Can give amber and woody accords warmth, depth and a clearer drydown; strength and progression must be checked in the target accord.

From the source: Contributions explicitly identifiable in the source text: an effect explicitly described as long-lasting.

Use and dosage

No reliable numerical use range documented for this product grade. Low: supports warmth and depth. Medium: delineates a clear amber body. High: can significantly increase dryness, density, or dominance; test in the target accord.

No confirmed manufacturer use level for this exact product.

Chemical name(+)-(1R,4S,9S,10R,13S)-5,5,9,13-tetramethyl-14,16-dioxatetracyclo[11.2.1.0~1,10~.0~4,9~]hexadecane
FormulaC18H30O2
Molecular weight278 g/mol
Vapour pressure0.0001 Pa at 20 °C (1.00e-4 Pa)
Relative VP bandvery_low

The Pa value is a unit conversion only, not a temperature normalisation. VP band and molecular weight are not translated into evaporation hours.

A vapor pressure of 0.0001 Pa (≈ 1.000e-4 Pa) has been reported at 20 °C; relative physical band class: very_low. This is not a prediction of evaporation time, odor strength, diffusion, or skin/blotter duration.
