What does Ambermor Ketal IPM smell like?
IFF describes this material as "extremely powerful amber and woody", and supplier listings of the same solution give it as amber, woody and musky. ScenTree places the molecule itself in the woody / ambery-woods group with cedar, ambergris and milky facets. In a formula it behaves as a dry ambery fixative with a faint animalic-musky edge and no sweetness, working best as a modifier that adds body and length under existing woody-ambery materials rather than as a note that reads on its own. This grade is the ketal carried at roughly 8.5 percent in isopropyl myristate, so it pours and dissolves without warming, and it is weighed at roughly twelve times the dose of the neat crystal.
