What does Herbalime smell like?

IFF's data, as carried by Ventos, gives the olfactive description as fresh, pine, lime, herbal and lemon-like. It is supplied as a naturally derived, upcycled terpene fraction rather than a single molecule, which is why the profile spans several notes at once: it opens airy and camphoraceous like pine needle and dries toward a clearly lime and crushed-herb character with lavender and lemon nuances behind it. It is used as a booster for natural lime oil, which fades quickly on its own, and to put pine-like freshness into the top and heart of colognes and fougeres. Because it is a terpene fraction it should be treated as peroxide-sensitive and kept cold and full.

Restricted under IFRA. This material carries a restriction. PerfuMate checks your formula against the 51st Amendment as you build, including the same molecule arriving from several naturals at once. What that covers, and what it does not.

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.
