Perfume and Flavor Chemicals, page 1383.
Pale straw-colored or yellowish or pale olive-green, slightly viscous liquid.
Practically insoluble in water, soluble in alcohol and oils.
Fresh, yet sweet-floral, delicately fruity-oily or mildly waxy odor of outstanding tenacity. The woody notes are hardly perceptible, while the floral notes are more predominant, the fruity less so than in the Acetate.
The material is overall not very interesting, and for the very high cost of production, it does not encourage to frequent use in perfumery. It is occasionally prepared by an interested party for use in private formulations, generally not for sale.
From purified Vetiverol and Butyric anhydride (or so-Butyric anhydride).
