A very faint, waxy-fatty material with a soft, clean skin-like character reminiscent of long-chain diols and fatty alcohols. Mostly odorless in isolation, contributing a smooth, slightly soapy background rather than a distinct note. Often used more for functional/fixative or texture purposes than as an odorant.AI · claude-opus-4-7
