Effect in a formula

Woody building block
Structure provider
Drydown modifier

Can define the woody axis, structure the drydown and connect floral or amber parts; the specific dominance is dosage-dependent.

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: contours the drydown. Medium: builds a recognizable woody axis. High: can overshadow floral or fresh parts and make the accord drier or more massive.

No confirmed manufacturer use level for this exact product.

Behaviour and performance

No data available.

Reported as stated by the source. Diffusion, tenacity and note impact are not combined into a single performance score.

Good areas of use

Function classEster
Vapour pressure0.000489 mmHg at 23 °C (0.0652 Pa)
Relative VP bandlow

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

At 23 °C a vapor pressure of 0.000489 mmHg (≈ 0.0652 Pa) was reported; relative physical band class: low. This is not a prediction of evaporation time, odor strength, diffusion, or skin/blotter duration.
