Musk ambrette

Description:
Musk ambrette, with the CAS number 83-66-9, is a synthetic aromatic compound belonging to the class of nitro musks. It is characterized by its musky odor, which is often used in perfumery and fragrance formulations to impart a warm, sweet scent. Musk ambrette is a pale yellow to brownish solid at room temperature and is soluble in organic solvents such as alcohol and oils, but has limited solubility in water. The compound has a relatively low volatility, which contributes to its lasting scent in fragrances. Musk ambrette is known for its fixative properties, helping to stabilize and prolong the scent of other fragrance components. However, it has raised environmental and health concerns due to its potential to bioaccumulate and its classification as a possible endocrine disruptor. As a result, its use in cosmetics and personal care products is regulated in some regions. Overall, musk ambrette serves as an important ingredient in the fragrance industry, balancing scent longevity with regulatory considerations.
