Description and usage notes:
A deceptively powerful material of great diffusion that should be used in traces to exalt and unify sandalwood and musk odourants. Easy to overdose but invaluable when properly used. Â Many people find it hard to smell, even in dilution and not everyone smells the same thing (see the Symrise description below). Â It can add great effects to woody, tobacco, musk and incense blends.
Despite its diffusive character this material is also very tenacious, even outlasting some musks.
Description from Symrise:
| Odor Description: | animalic, woody, amber, tonkin musk |
| Stability: | body lotion (good), shampoo/shower gel (very good), soap (good), AP roll-on 15% (good), detergent powder conc. (very good), cleaner liquid citric acid (good), cleaner APC liquid (very good), bleach (poor) |
| Perfumery Use: | individual perception varies between clean woody and animalic sweat-like; adds a warm sensual aspect to woody and musky notes; pretends a sensual attraction to fragrance acceptance |
| Use Level: | traces up to 1% |
It is provided here at 10% in ethanol to make blending a little easier, but we still recommend further dilution prior to use if you’re new to this material.

Not powerful to my nose.
Actually, I am using it in a knock-off of Seminalis by Orto Parisi along with Clearwood and Javanol.
I think that the effect of Aldron is to bring a subtle erogenic aspect to your accord.

I am fortunate to be able to smell it and to me, it is a very noble, floral musk, with a sharp-ish edge.
Agree with the previous reviewer on the “subtle erogenic aspect”.
