What does Ambermor smell like?

A strong woody amber with a sweet earthy, musky odour and a delicate animalic tonality. IFF reports high impact in both heart and base and substantivity beyond forty-eight hours, with very good stability and performance in fine fragrance, soap, shampoo and antiperspirant deodorant, at levels from traces upward. In a formula it is the workhorse ambergris-woody fixative: it lends volume and skin-like radiance to a whole composition rather than smelling of one thing, extends woods and musks, and survives hostile bases where naturals do not. Distributor specifications identify it as the ambroxan molecule at over ninety-nine percent by GC, supplied as a crystalline powder; it is naturally derived, fully renewable and vegan suitable.

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.
