What does Allyl Octanoate smell like?

Waxy and fatty first, then a green tropical pineapple body with a watercress bite and a metallic-soapy edge. The heaviest of the allyl fruit esters: where allyl caproate is pure juicy pineapple, this one smooths and fattens a fruit accord rather than brightening it, and like all allyl esters it needs free allyl alcohol below 0.1%.

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.
