Use

Fixateur 505 (Fir) has a somewhat sweet scent towards ambergris, wood, but also some fresh citrus aspects. The fragrance is not particularly strong, but a dilution of 10% can still be useful. In this case, TEC is a good solvent, because it is already abundantly present in the fragrance base, just like Hercolyn D. Typical use is as a substitute for ambergris. You usually use less than 1% of this substance in the fragrance composition, but more is not a problem. It combines especially well with amber, wood, spice scents and musks. It adds warmth and depth to the fragrance. In perfumes it is mainly a base note, it is quite stable in most products, including soap.

Keep cool, dry, dark and out of the reach of children.
