Excellent teacher. Are you a perfumer?

Quick question: Will the impact of for instance cis-3-hexenol change from 700 to 70 when diluted to 10% ?

[@columbyan]

I am a novice, but according to my understanding a smell will hit your nose faster when dilluted in alcohol, because it difuses easier in the air

[@armanhanda]

Yes that is correct. Stephen mentioned this in the video, people on average rate 10% dilution of cis-3-hexenol around 60 to 80

[@armanhanda]

Mysore is in the south of India

[@REDEMPIRECM]

How much impact has ethanol?
