Application
1-(2-tert-Butylcyclohexyl)oxybutan-2-ol (CAS 139504-68-0), commercially known as Amber Core or Ambercore, is a synthetic fragrance developed by Kao Chemicals. It is a clear, pale yellow liquid with a very soft, delicate woody amber note described as possessing a natural richness, powdery nuances, and a warm, slightly creamy balsamic character reminiscent of ambergris and cedarwood with floral undertones. This versatile aroma ingredient is classified as a base note and is widely used as a cost-effective yet high-quality fixation agent in the flavor and fragrance industry. It is valued for its ability to provide excellent olfactory longevity and stability in various formulations. Amber Core is primarily applied in perfumery for building woody, amber, and oriental accords. It is also extensively used in cosmetics, soaps, shampoos, body lotions, fine fragrances, colognes, laundry detergents, household cleaners, and scented candles. A particularly notable feature is its high recommended usage level, which can be up to 50% of a fragrance formula, allowing it to serve effectively both as a supporting fixative for expensive ingredients like Ambroxan or as a standalone amber base in its own right. Xinchem offers custom synthesis, custom chemical synthesis, and contract manufacturing of this high-purity Amber Core to meet specific client needs.
