What does Hotact VBE smell like?

Weak vanilla with a fruity edge: TGSC types it simply vanilla-fruity, other suppliers calling it a faint vanillic, slightly acidic odour. The smell is not why it is bought. It is the warming counterpart to the Coolacts, a sensation felt immediately on application, building rapidly within about the first five minutes and holding for roughly two hours, and it also enhances the perceived cold of cooling agents dosed alongside it. In a formula it sits under a gourmand or amber base and warms it physically as well as olfactively.

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.
