Insoluble in water, soluble in alcohol, miscible in perfume oils.
Woody, slightly leathery odor with a somewhat earthy undertone. It bears a slight similarity to Vetiver acetate in this respect.
Used as a fixative in perfumes, mostly soap perfumes of the woody type. It blends well with the Ionones, Lavandin oil, iso-Bornyi acetate, artificial musks, etc., but it contributes only little to the overall odor. It may form part of a leather complex but it will not lend much character to it.
Produced by acetylation of Cedrol.
