| General comment | At 100.00 %. musk ambrette fruity berry |
| This alicyclic topnote musk is easily perceived by all users. It has a PCM-like character with berry topnotes and ambrette like nuances. It can be used as a PCM replacer and is stable in most applications. Resembles the closest musk to Galaxolide ® in character. | Very delicate musky note, less fruity and less Ambrette than Helvetolide® with more tenacity and more volume on the dry down |
| Arcadi Boix Camps, writing in 2004, says of Romandolide: “This material is clean, heavy, long-lasting, and similar to Galaxolide in many respects though it is less fruity and more camphoraceous. … Although more diffusive than macrocyclic and polycyclic musks, the material performs in a way quite similar to these musk chemicals. Romandolide is just now finding use in perfumes including Absolu de Rochas and Angel Schlesser for men.” | Musk, sweet, fruity-berry, ambrette |
| Applications | |
| Odor purposes | Ambrette oil replacer , Floral , Musk , Oriental , Sandalwood , Woody |
