What does Black Hemlock Absolute smell like?

Solvent-extracted needle and twig absolute, a dark green syrup where the distilled oil is a thin bright liquid. Sweet balsamic conifer carrying a blackcurrant-bud tang over smoke and soft leather, far heavier and more tenacious than spruce or fir needle oil. The forest note behind Ormonde Jayne's Ormonde Woman, and it holds into the base rather than flashing off the top.

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 522 materials carrying no CAS number the 226 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.
