About

Cyclic fragrance ingredient with a warm, woody, slightly sweet scent.

Decahydro-beta-naphthyl isobutyrate is a saturated bicyclic ester functioning as a fragrance ingredient with warm, woody, and slightly camphoraceous notes reminiscent of cedarwood and ambergris. The fully saturated decalin-type ring system is chemically stable and not subject to oxidation concerns that affect unsaturated fragrance materials. It is not listed on EU Annex restrictions and carries no GHS hazard statements, consistent with its favourable toxicological profile as a simple saturated ester.
