What does Orris Absolute smell like?

The irone-rich heart of orris: powdery violet and iris over a soft woody, rooty base, with a raspberry-like fruity and faintly green edge. Very diffusive and long-lasting; grades are sold standardised by irone content, so strength differs from lot to lot.

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.
