What does Clary Sage Absolute smell like?

Sweet ambery-herbaceous absolute loaded with sclareol: hay, tobacco leaf and a honeyed wine-like warmth, with none of the oil's linalyl acetate freshness. The natural of choice for building ambergris and tobacco accords, and a quiet fixative sitting under fougeres and chypres.

What is Clary Sage Absolute made of?

An estimated breakdown, not a certificate of analysis, and it is what PerfuMate sums when it checks a formula: a molecule arriving from three naturals at once is counted once rather than missed three times. Paste your own supplier analysis and it takes over.

And the limits, because they decide how far the rest can be trusted. 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 428 materials carrying no CAS number the 127 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.
