Ambroxan, AMBROX DL, and Ambrocenide are all synthetic fragrance molecules widely used in the perfume industry for their ambergris-like, musky, and woody scents. Despite their similarities, these three compounds have distinct characteristics and uses that set them apart:

1. AMBROX DL (CAS 3738-00-9)?

² Chemical Formula: C16H28O

² Appearance: White powder

² Odor: Musky, ambergris-like with a strong woody impact

² Usage: Widely used in the fragrance industry, AMBROX DL is valued for its powerful woody note and heady, ambergris-like scent. It brings depth and richness to fragrances and is often used in perfumes where a deep, warm, and musky character is desired. It's known for contributing to long-lasting fragrances with a prominent woody facet.

² Function: Acts as a fixative and enhancer, helping to stabilize and extend the longevity of perfumes.

2. Ambrocenide (CAS 211299-54-6)

² Chemical Formula: C18H30O2

² Scent: Long-lasting amber, woody, and musky aroma

² Usage: Ambrocenide is an important aroma chemical that enhances the depth and longevity of perfumes. Its versatility allows it to blend well in various fragrance compositions, contributing both richness and stability. It is especially valued in high-end perfumes and other fragrance applications like personal care products and home fragrances.

² Properties: Known for its strong, persistent scent that provides lasting amber and woody notes in the final product.

3. Ambroxane (CAS 6790-58-5)

² Chemical Formula: C16H28O

² Appearance: Colorless to white crystals

² Scent: Strong, ambergris-like aroma (similar to natural ambergris)

² Usage: Ambroxane is a synthetic alternative to natural ambergris, widely used in high-end perfumes. Its ability to mimic the rich, musky scent of ambergris makes it a valuable ingredient in many fragrances. Additionally, it’s commonly used in cosmetic and personal care products, such as soaps, shampoos, creams, and talcum powders, due to its non-irritating properties.

² Function: Serves as a fragrance fixative and is prized for its smooth, ambergris-like aroma. It also enhances the longevity and stability of scents, making it a preferred ingredient in formulations for long-lasting, elegant fragrances.

These compounds are part of a group of ingredients that help create complex, enduring, and high-quality fragrances, and their uses go beyond just perfumes to include personal care products and home fragrances, where they help in delivering a luxurious sensory experience.
