Application Overview
OTBCHA's excellent stability and unique woody-herbal character make it a highly desirable component in long-lasting and functional fragrances:
Fine Fragrances (Fougère/Masculine): It is a classic ingredient in fougère, chypre, and modern aquatic masculine fragrances. It provides the necessary dry, leafy-green, and slightly metallic woody backbone that defines these categories.
Soaps and Detergents: Its outstanding stability against oxidation, high pH (alkalinity), and temperature makes it ideal for use in bar soaps, laundry powders, and heavy-duty cleaners, where it delivers a persistent fresh, clean scent.
Air Care Products: Due to its relatively high vapor pressure for a woody material, it performs exceptionally well in air fresheners and diffusers, providing a steady, long-lasting herbal-woody scent throw.
Blending and Extension: It is frequently used to modify and extend more expensive natural essential oils like vetiver, pine needle, and patchouli, adding volume and tenacity to the overall blend.
