Burnisher smells sweet when warmed.

[SUP]

 I just came across a burnishing gum that smells sweet whenever it gets warmed - so whenever it gets burnished, it releases the fragrance. When it cools, the smell disappears.

I was wondering about what would happen if it were used on items that are exposed to the heat of summer outside - for example, if it is used on saddles and the saddles were used outside in the heat. 

There is no information about this happening anywhere in the product information section.

Has anyone come across something like this anywhere else?

SUP is it a gum trag? Product

@DieselTech I have no idea. I got it off Amazon Vine (who says no to 'free'?), and it shows no ingredients whatsoever. It smells chemically (is that even a word?) until I heat it. It is white, like Tokonole, only a bit less thick, not sticky or gummy. I have never used gum trag, so if that smells sweet, it could be. But this smell is sickly. Does gum trag smell sickly? The smell remained on my fingers until I washed it away with a stronger smelling soap! A non-scented soap did not work.

Some gum trag has a sweet perfumey smell. Gum tragacanth is plant based of some sort. 

I have heard of people getting some nasty smelling edge slick solution off the web, but can't remember where they got it. 

When I use gum trag it leaves a sweet perfume smell on my fingers, but usually will go away. No smell after it gets warm or hot either.

No idea what this is. I think it is trying to be a replacement for Tokonole. I''ll try gum trag and see if it is the same.

Can you post a picture of the jar or name on the jar?

I'm not sure I can do that. I got it on Amazon Vine and I am not sure I can expose its information until 6 months later. I will find out from Amazon.
