Ingredient name 'para-n-Propyl' is incomplete — 'para-n-propyl' is a substituent prefix (indicating a propyl group in the para position on an aromatic ring), not a complete compound. Without the parent structure (e.g. para-n-propyl anisole, para-n-propyl phenol) the olfactory profile cannot be determined reliably.AI · claude-opus-4-7
