A very faint, oily-waxy ester with a soft fatty undertone and a whisper of fruitiness. Nearly odorless in isolation, it functions mostly as a diluent and fixative — smoothing out and extending brighter top notes rather than contributing its own character.AI · claude-opus-4-7

This ester is sometimes used in perfume compositions as a blender/solvent or sweetener/diluent. Mostly in low-cost perfumes, or in compositions where the total cost has to be adjusted for some very strong reason. The material does not depress the overall odor quite as much as noticed with Diethyl phthalate, but there may be a slight addition of ethereal odor with the use of the title ester in higher concentrations.
Produced by azeotropic esterification of iso-Propanol with Sebacic acid.
