Not a perfumery material — these are industrial glycol ether solvents (2-methoxyethanol and its acetate) with a mild, sweet, ethereal solvent odor reminiscent of nail polish or paint thinner. Toxic and not used in fragrance formulation; likely appears here as a hazard reference or contaminant listing.AI · claude-opus-4-7
