About
A polycyclic fragrance acetate with a long history of use in cosmetic applications where established IFRA guidelines support safe formulation levels.
This polycyclic acetate derives from saturated naphthalene骨架 conferring relatively lower reactivity compared to unsaturated fragrance materials. The acetate ester function provides characteristic woody-musk odor notes common in cosmetic fragrances. Long-standing use history and IFRA safety data support its use at controlled concentrations, with EU allergen disclosure thresholds applicable to this ingredient class.
