Ambrinol

About

Ambrinol is an ambergris-associated aroma chemical with a salty, marine-animalic odor, blending sea-spray, iodine and seaweed tones with warm skin, damp driftwood, smoky-tobacco and soft leather facets; at high concentration it can smell slightly fecal or fishy. Used only in minute traces, it imparts naturalistic ambergris depth, lift and diffusion, acting as a fixative-bridge that enriches marine, woody, chypre, leather, tobacco and certain floral accords, smoothing citrus edges and amplifying musks, labdanum and woods.
