starts off cinnamic, resinous, some maltol, styrax, bitter almond, loosing its smokey-plastic undertones quickly and developing a spicy woody-amber signature. Lasts for weeks on the blotter.

at 10% in ethanol:
pretty much what TGSC are saying on their site. But I also smell quite prominently a kind of „dry-chemical” note. Like synthetic/plastic package material or brand new electronic devices.
Burnt plastic. Also it reminds me of the smell that occurred when I was a kid and we were melting tin at new years eve, to pour it into water and „read” the figures.

For experimentation I will probably dilute it further to 5%.

opopanax replacer

Edgy stuff at 100%; slightly vegetal and animalic at the same time. To me, in its ambivalence it captures very well the characteristics of opopanax.

I checked with Firmenich which solvent works best for Civettone.
This is the answer: „After verification with one of our perfumers I can confirm that all solvents mentioned by you [TEC, EtOH, DPG, IPM] can be used.
He would have a slight preference for DPG.”

Nice stuff!
At 100% I hardly smell anything. Diluted to 10% I get a decent yet explicit fruity-powdery note, soft and opaque like pastel colours. Might be very useful for softening scratchy synthetics in the floral/fruity range.
The pineapple note IFF is mentioning I can pick up after two hours. They categorise this material as „opulent” – I disagree. To me it’s actually unobtrusive with a slightly chalky texture. Overall quite pleasant on its own.

cut grass, watery-vetiver

@1%
there is a subtle gardenia note, TGSC is mentioning on their site; but frankly, to my nose it’s more about transparent vetiver and grapefruit

See Firmenich for information.

TGSC: woody orris violet berry powdery

out of stock

A warm precious wood aroma with musky undertones. Long lasting and diffusive. Woody, cedar, leathery, dry.

In comparison to methyl cedryl ketone the ratio of isomers in Vertofix Coeur is higher.
MCK is about 80.70% (max 85%) and Vertofix Coeur 87.58% (max 90%).

Compared to Vertacetal Coeur it’s stronger and more juicy. While VaC has some bitter grapefruit notes (besides the hemp), Vetival leans more towards the lemon/orange spectrum with slight aldehydic qualities. Woody in the dry-down.
