Arctander notes that it “does not discolor soaps or other mildly alkaline products.” . he describes it as having a “mild, sweet-musky odor with a faint, animal undertone and good tenacity. relatively stable under normal conditions in perfume creations. may develop a slightly sour note during storage, a note which is appreciated by some perfumers, disliked by others.” his suggested usage levels are from 0.5% to 3% but he also comments that “certain perfume types may benefit from considerably higher content of celestolide”
