CAS: 929625-08-1
AMBERMAX 50% (CAS: 929625-08-1) is a synthetic fragrance ingredient, specifically a Givaudan product, providing a powerful and highly appreciated ambergris type note. The active component is Dodecahydro-3a,6,6,9a-tetramethylnaphtho[2,1-b]furan. It possesses a very dry, rich, woody, musky, warm, sweet, and animalic amber odor with tobacco facets, making it a modern interpretation of natural ambergris. The '50%' typically refers to its dilution in a solvent for ease of handling and formulation.
Primarily used as a fragrance component to impart sophisticated amber, woody, and musky notes. It is valued for its excellent diffusion, tenacity, and ability to enhance warmth and richness in perfume compositions.
Widely applied in fine fragrances (perfumes), personal care products such as soaps, shower gels, lotions, deodorants, and cosmetics. It is also used in household products like air fresheners, detergents, and fabric softeners where a long-lasting, deep amber character is desired.
As a concentrated fragrance ingredient, AMBERMAX 50% should be handled with care. Safety data sheets (SDS) typically indicate potential skin sensitization and eye irritation. It is often classified as harmful to aquatic life with long-lasting effects. Adherence to IFRA (International Fragrance Association) standards and recommended usage levels is crucial for safe application in consumer products. Direct contact with skin and eyes should be avoided, and good industrial hygiene practices should be followed.
