What does Cetyver smell like?
A compounded vetiver speciality base rather than a single molecule. The Good Scents Company files it under vetiver specialty with the odour reading woody vetiver powdery at full strength, odour type woody, and Perflavory characterises the family as one of the iconic woody bases, very rich. In a formula it does the job a vetiver oil does without the raw material's variability: a dry, earthy-woody floor with a soft powdery lift that fixes and lengthens the base of chypres, fougeres and masculine woods. Vigon's documentation declares the CAS as MIXTURE and names geranyl acetone and nerolidol on the shipping papers, consistent with the green-woody smoothing those two give the vetiver body.

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
540 materials carrying no CAS number the 248 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.
