What does Mefranal smell like?

Clean aldehydic lily-of-the-valley with a green, lemon-geranium brightness and a waxy-woody drydown. Far more substantive than a citrus aldehyde, so it carries that fresh aldehydic lift right through the heart of muguet and fabric-care florals instead of flashing off the top.

Which materials are closest to Mefranal?

Ranked by how many olfactive sub-categories they share with Mefranal, not alphabetically.

How much does PerfuMate know about one material?

What this page carries, beside what the whole catalog carries. Every figure on the right is counted from the file the app ships, at the moment this page was built, so it cannot drift from the product the way a sentence somebody typed would.

And the limits, because they decide how far the rest can be trusted. 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 428 materials carrying no CAS number the 127 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.
