KEPHALIS (CAS: 36306-87-3) is a synthetic aroma chemical developed by Givaudan. It is a 1,3-oxathiane derivative known for its distinctive woody, amber, dry, animalic, and slightly spicy odor profile. It is highly valued in perfumery for its richness, warmth, and excellent diffusion, providing a unique character to fragrance compositions.
Primarily used as a fragrance ingredient in the creation of perfumes, colognes, and various scented consumer products.
Found in fine fragrances (e.g., perfumes, eau de toilette), personal care products (e.g., soaps, shampoos, lotions, deodorants), and home care products (e.g., air fresheners, detergents, fabric softeners) to impart warm, woody, or amber notes, often enhancing longevity and adding depth.
As with many fragrance materials, it may cause skin sensitization in susceptible individuals, especially at higher concentrations. It is recommended to adhere to industry guidelines and regulations (e.g., IFRA standards) for safe use in consumer products. General chemical handling precautions should be observed, including avoiding direct contact with skin and eyes, and ensuring adequate ventilation.
