Organoleptic Properties

Odor Type: Musk
powdery, musk, animal, natural, greasy
Odor strength medium , recommend smelling in a 10.00 % solution or less
Substantivity 320 hour(s) at 100.00 %
Luebke, William tgsc, (1986) At 10.00 % in dipropylene glycol. powdery musk animal natural greasy
General comment Strongly musk, slightly erogenic animal-like
Arctander is enthusiastic about it too: “Powerful musky odor, very similar to that of Muscone (Methylcyclopentadecanone) and, in the opinion of many perfumers, superior in type and beauty. It ranks among the finest and most efficient fixatives known, and – like Cyclopentadecanolide – it improves the ‘wearability’ of a perfume when properly incorporated in the fragrance. Its power becomes more perceptible and evident in extreme dilution, e.g. below one percent in the perfume oil.” Comes as fine crystals. Musk, sweet, animalic, powdery
