What does Isopropyl 2-Methylbutyrate smell like?

Diffusive green-apple and pear ester with an ethereal tutti-frutti lift and a faint minty-herbal tail. A low-cost topnote sparkle for fruity florals, softer and pearier than ethyl 2-methylbutyrate.

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.
