What does Acalea TT smell like?

The Good Scents Company gives the odour type as floral at medium strength: floral, heliotrope, tropical, mimosa, berry and green, noting that it is bright and penetrating with sweet mimosa and apple-seed undertones. Ventos records it as floral-sweet, heliotrope, mimosa and powdery with green nuances. The molecule is p-methyl-alpha-amyl cinnamaldehyde, a ring-methylated relative of amyl cinnamic aldehyde, and that added methyl steers it away from jasmine and toward powdery mimosa and heliotrope. Blotter life is over 48 hours, so it behaves as a floral fixative as much as a floral: it holds a mimosa or heliotrope accord together deep into the drydown and lends powder and body to florals that would otherwise thin out.

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.
