Olfactive note:
Woody, Ambery, Tobacco, Musky
Description:
Okoumal gives significant volume, richness and warmth to fragrance compositions at a reasonable dosage. As little as 0.5 - 1% adds an attractive, woody-ambery effect. Okoumal combines well with cedar derivatives, patchouli oil and sandalwood products (eg. Ebanol). With its low vapour pressure and high MW, Okoumal is a body note and is extremely long lasting (more than 1 month) and substantive on every support. Okoumal is very stable in major applications.
