Kephalis is a rich woody and tobacco material that really holds its ground in a blend of lighter wood chemicals such as Iso E Super. Use it to add softness and velvety goodness to a wood accord, or simply use it alone for a more interesting take on amber wood than the classic patchouli ethanone family.
According to Givaudan, “Kephalis is a very versatile and rich product, used as a long lasting heart and base notes. It blends well with floral notes (jasmine, rose, violet, lavender, etc.) as well as sophisticated ambery, woody-aldehydic, tobacco and masculine creations.”
Though typically used between 2 – 5% of a total formula, Kephalis can be overdosed quite comfortably.
Extremely synergistic with Oud Intense, Patchouli, Iso E Super, Thujopsene, Sandalwood materials, Cetonal, Operanide and Ambrocenide.
Longevity: Lasts > 80 hours on a smelling strip.

General Information
General Information
Like most suppliers and makers of quality raw materials for fragrances, we do not filter many of our products. This ensures that no odiferous matter is lost prior to use but can result in the appearance of small particles or slight clouding.
All alcoholic fragrances should be macerated for up to a month and then chilled in a moderate freezer overnight before being filtered fine. This will remove all cloudiness or detritus and is the industry norm.
