Short profile
Orbitone T presents a wood-led profile, with dry cedar shading and a restrained amber contribution. Creaminess and a plush, smooth texture soften the woody impression, while a faint violet nuance adds detail. Its radiance is airy rather than assertive: the supplier describes a modest blotter impression but a considerably larger presence within a blend. Persistence extends over days, although the page does not document separate opening, heart and dry-down stages.
Effect in a formula
Use Orbitone T as a spacious woody framework that increases perceived fullness while preserving an open composition. It supports the prominence of other notes, softens abrupt edges and contributes fixation without necessarily becoming a conspicuous woody accent. The supplier positions it broadly across fragrance families, with particular relevance to woody, amber and floral accords and to masculine structures.
Use and dosage
The supplier gives 1–20% of the fragrance formulation as its general formulation range for adding fullness and openness. A separate laboratory note specifies 1–10% in the finished fragrance; this is a different stated basis and should not be treated as a concentrate conversion. These are use recommendations, not IFRA limits; no distinct trace-dose or overdose range is supplied.
No confirmed manufacturer use level for this exact product.
Behaviour and performance
- Tenacity
- The page reports 172 hours of blotter substantivity, attributing that figure to TGSC; the test dilution is not specified. Its laboratory commentary also describes persistence over several days, although a separate page indicator labels tenacity as medium.
Diffusion, tenacity and note impact are not combined into a single performance score.
Good areas of use
Dissolving and diluting
- Solvents
- Clear solutions are reported with ethanol, dipropylene glycol (DPG) and isopropyl myristate (IPM). The page does not supply quantitative solubility limits.
- Working dilution
- Evaluate at 10% in ethanol. For formulation work, the page lists both undiluted material and a 10% dilution; DPG and IPM are also identified as suitable solvents.
- Appearance
- A viscous liquid whose colour ranges from colourless to a light yellow tint.
