Short profile

The supplier describes a restrained woody-amber character, with cedar-like detail and a faint musky undertone. Its dry texture moves towards a mineral impression in the dry-down rather than a warm, powdery amber effect. Although positioned as a base material, it is reported to diffuse effectively and remain highly substantive. The page does not provide a separate opening-to-heart evaluation on blotter.

Effect in a formula

Provides a substantive woody foundation, supporting persistence while contributing depth and diffusion. It is particularly suited to chypre structures, contemporary amber compositions and woody accords. The supplier also identifies a citrus-enhancing effect and an ability to introduce amber character without emphasizing powdery warmth.

Use and dosage

The supplier lists 0.75% as an average concentration in the perfume compound. This is formulation guidance, not an IFRA limit; no trace-use range or overdose recommendation is supplied, and the basis relative to the neat and 50% DPG options is not specified.

No confirmed manufacturer use level for this exact product.

Behaviour and performance

Tenacity
Supplier-reported persistence exceeds 160 hours on a smelling strip. Evaluation dilution and other test conditions are not given.

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

The supplier specifies a colourless liquid with pronounced viscosity.
Practical tip: Check product identification when consulting accompanying paperwork: Fraterworks flags an erroneous CAS assignment in documents received from Ventos. Its correction identifies TCD Alcohol DM as 26160-83-8, rather than 26896-48-0.
