Attention!

Before purchasing, read all information below and the general product information.
Not intended for use in food, vape liquids or other internal use.
Intended to be mixed with other fragrances: on its own, the scent can be boring or even unpleasant.
Do not use undiluted on the skin: it is a raw material, not a final product.

Use

Bornafix (IFF) has a woody-amber scent. The scent is not particularly strong, undiluted use is common. Typical use is in wood and amber accords. You usually use between 1% and 10% of this substance in the fragrance composition. It combines well with other wood and amber scents, but also with many floral scents and citrus. It adds warmth and depth to the fragrance, much like Iso E Super, but it is a bit more green in scent. In perfumes it is mainly a base note, it is stable in most products, also in soap, scented candles and even bleach.

Store in a cool, dry, dark place and out of reach of children.
