Description
Musk Ambrette was widely used as a musk in the previous decade, especially in
its early years. Its characteristic scent allowed for its use in large
concentrations, resulting in a powerful fixative effect. Its official career
ended in 1995. Recognized as harmful to human health, it was banned and
withdrawn from common use.
We do not encourage its intensive use; rather, it is valued for its historical
significance. Without Musk Ambrette, the atmosphere of vintage perfumes cannot
be fully recreated.
Note: The molecule does not dilute well in pure ethanol. Similar to Musk Ketone,
Benzyl Benzoate can be used as an alternative. It can also be added directly to
the concentrate to avoid solubility issues.
