What does Clearwood Prisma smell like?

dsm-firmenich's concentrated Clearwood, at least 90% patchoulol produced by sugar fermentation. The house describes it as beaming with light, offering the creamy warmth of amber and a dark woody character reminiscent of patchouli, more delicate than standard Clearwood and a good partner for floral bouquets. It sits in the heart and base with high tenacity, so it supplies patchouli's body and depth in a cleaner, more transparent form and at a far smaller dose than the standard article.

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.
