Cetalox

SKU: 1UW13850

Cetalox has a fine dry waxy ambergris note used in animallic, mens, chypre and oriental perfumes and as an all round fixative. When compared to Ambrox Super, Ambrofix and Ambroxan, Cetalox has a creamier finer character less woody making it generally more suitable with florals but still very versatile. Think white leather (Cetalox) vs. beige coloured leather (Ambrox Super, Ambrofix or Ambroxan)

Important Notes:

End application data applies to experiments carried out by the authors or extrapolated from those experiments using computer algorithms. As application product formulations vary widely this information is only a general guide.

Full testing by both perfumers- flavorists and end users is the only proven method to ensuring a perfume or flavours safety- strength- suitability- stability and success.

Legislation and regulations vary widely and change with time so it is your duty to check this.
