Opens warm and leathery-animalic: smoky, phenolic in a calamine-lotion way, and unmistakably castoreum, with clear birch-tar facets and a sweet resinous undertone that softens the smoke. It develops a musky sensuality and turns faintly fruity in the drydown. Firmenich's animal-free reconstruction, a co-extraction of natural and synthetic parts that per the house glossary contains no castoreum at all. In a formula it supplies animalic warmth, leather character and phenolic depth to chypres, fougeres, leathers and orientals, and holds on a blotter for well over two weeks.

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
558 materials carrying no CAS number the 257 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.
