What does Bisabolene smell like?

Sesquiterpene sold as the gamma isomer, and it smells of the balsams rather than of wood: opopanax and myrrh, warm and softly spicy, with orange-blossom sweetness above and a thin fruit-peel edge below. A material for giving a resinous accord body without the smoke a real resinoid brings.

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.
