Community › Classic Amber Accord
The timeless labdanum-vanillin amber: resinous, sweet, warm, slightly balsamic-smoky. Use: 10-30% as the base of orientals; ages beautifully.
Each band's share of the concentrate. Which band a material lands in is read from its blotter life, which is a measurement where somebody has taken it and an estimate everywhere else, so treat the split as the bench's reading rather than a specification.

Every material in the published formula, heaviest first. The figure is its share of the concentrate, the same figure each material's own page prints beside this formula. The dilution each one was weighed at stays on the bench.

The materials and their shares are above, and the rest is on the bench: the dilution behind every line, the scent profile and the drydown, and one tap that copies the whole formula onto your own shelf to scale, adjust and weigh.
