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, rounding or softer transitions, 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

Diffusionvery high – explicit source description

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