What does Gardenia B.Base smell like?

The house describes it as expressing the whole richness of the flower, the sensuality of its plump petals, reproducing the inebriating, unique and powerful scent of gardenia. In a formula it is a ready-made white floral heart, standing in for a flower that yields no usable essential oil, and its stated power means it will dominate a floral accord unless the other florals are built around it.

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.
