What does 3,6-Nonadienol smell like?

Zeon describes it as diffusive, fresh green and violet-like, and its catalogue expands that to powerful, natural, fresh, green, violet leaf, fruity and vegetable. It is the wet, cut-stem green rather than the sharp leaf-alcohol green: cucumber and melon rind under a violet-leaf top, with a fruity edge that keeps it from reading purely vegetal. In a formula a trace opens the top and pushes air through everything behind it, which is what makes it the standard lift for violet leaf, cucumber, melon and green florals, and what makes overdosing it read as crushed foliage or a fresh-cut vegetable across the whole composition. Note that this is the (3Z,6Z) isomer, a different material from the (2E,6Z) nonadienol usually sold as violet leaf alcohol, and it does not substitute for it one to one.

Every regulatory join - IFRA, GHS, allergens - is by CAS number, and a material can supply one through its constituents as well as its own row, so of the 569 materials carrying no CAS number the 244 without a constituent table are the ones that return "nothing known" rather than "nothing applies". The blotter hours are sourced rather than measured by us, and the app labels every one of them an estimate. There is no physical chemistry on a row: no molecular weight, no vapour pressure, no boiling point. The longer answer, or the whole catalog counted.
