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. Statement refers to the specific commercial product grade; behavior of the undiluted individual molecule is not derived from this.

From the source: Contributions explicitly identifiable in the source text: more radiance, enhancement of olfactory presence.

Use and dosage

Manufacturer specification for this product grade: Up to 30%. This is not an IFRA limit. Low: contours the drydown. Medium: builds a recognizable woody axis. High: can mask floral or fresh parts and make the accord drier or heavier.

Up to 30%
Manufacturer use guidance for this exact product — not an IFRA limit. IFRA standards must be verified separately for the specific substance scope and product grade.
