What does Castoreum Base (synthetic) smell like?

Vegan castoreum reconstitution built on birch tar notes, p-cresyl esters, castoreum-type phenolics and ambery musks: smoky leather-fruit animalic warmth ready to drop into leather and chypre formulas. The practical modern substitute for the absolute.

What is Castoreum Base (synthetic) made of?

What the supplier DECLARES, not the whole formula. A base is a blend somebody else made: an IFRA conformity certificate and an allergen declaration list the restricted and declarable substances only, so these shares add up to a few percent and the remainder stays with the house. PerfuMate counts exactly what is listed here and claims nothing about the rest.

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.
