What does Nerolione smell like?

Symrise gives Floral, Orange Blossom; The Good Scents Company calls it a highly diffusive and intense floral-fresh aromatic reminiscent of orange blossom. It reads as orange blossom with an anthranilate-like sweetness and a peely, fresh-green edge on top. In a formula it is the high-impact key to orange blossom and neroli reconstructions and a booster for floriental accords, and because it is a benzofuran ketone rather than an anthranilate it does not discolour a base the way methyl anthranilate does. Symrise describes it as very substantive and puts the use level at 0.01 to 2 percent.

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.
