Short profile

Floralyn has very little intrinsic odour, with only a subdued woody-balsamic character. The residual impression is dry and resinous, accented by a faint amber nuance rather than a prominent signature. Neat blotter evaluation is reported to give little olfactory impact; the page does not document distinct opening, heart or dry-down transitions.

Use and dosage

The supplier gives 1–10% of the fragrance concentrate for carrier, dilution and fixation functions, particularly in woody, resinous and oriental formulas. A separate section lists 5–30% in the finished fragrance for fixation or extension; this is a different formulation basis and should not be read as the concentrate range. These are supplier use recommendations, not IFRA limits.

No confirmed manufacturer use level for this exact product.

Behaviour and performance

Tenacity
The page reports 400 hours of blotter substantivity, attributing the figure to TGSC. No test concentration or further experimental conditions are supplied.

Diffusion, tenacity and note impact are not combined into a single performance score.

Dissolving and diluting

Solvents
Clear solutions are reported with ethanol, DPG, IPM and TEC. The page does not specify concentration-dependent solubility limits.
Working dilution
Use neat for the supplier's recommended blotter evaluation; no solvent is required for that assessment. The listed working form is also undiluted, with no specific stock-solution percentage provided.
Appearance
A colourless to pale-yellow liquid with pronounced viscosity at room temperature.
Practical tip: Brief, gentle warming before weighing makes this highly viscous material easier to handle. For odour assessment, evaluate it neat on a blotter and expect a very faint impression rather than the impact of a character ingredient.
