Scent & character
Ambroxan is a name used for the ambroxide reference identified here by CAS 6790-58-5. The cited supplier describes its crystalline product as dry, sweet and ambergris-like. Keep its manufacturer and stock strength in the record: a diluted stock and another ambergris material are different formulation inputs.
STUDY PROMPT
Compare your exact Ambroxan product with Cetalox on separate, clearly labelled strips. Record the dilution and grade for each. Describe the differences without assuming the names identify interchangeable products.
Materials to compare
Use these as starting points for separate blotter comparisons and small, documented studies. A pairing is a question to explore, not a finished formula.

Record the exact material
Record the exact supplier product, grade, batch, and stock strength. Materials with similar names can have different composition and performance. Read the supplier documentation for your actual material before handling or using it.
Note placement describes a useful study role, not a precise evaporation clock. Dilution, the surrounding formula, and your own perception affect what you notice.
