A method of making a decalin alcohol; the alcohol is applied as a component in a fragrance composition containing 0.0005 to 10% by mass as component (a), represented by formula (1a), and 90 to 99.9995% by mass of one or more polycyclic woody-amber fragrances as component (b) selected from the group consisting of 7-acetyl-1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8-octahydro-1,1,6,7-tetramethylnaphthalene; 1,2,3,4,4a,5,6,7-octahydro-2,5,5-trimethyl-2-naphthalenol; 1,2,3,4,4a,7,8,8a-octahydro-2,4a,5,8a-tetramethyl-1-naphthyl formate; 3a-ethyldodecahydro-6,6,9a-trimethylnaphtho[2,1-b]furan; and racemic or optically active dodecahydro-3a,6,6,9a-tetramethylnaphtho[2,1-b]furan; the fragrance composition being contained in a cosmetic product, a household product, and an environmental/sanitary product. The fragrance composition of the present invention is a highly versatile fragrance composition that, with the decalin alcohol, brings about an odor of natural ambergris with an odor quality that imparts the effects of warmth even when employed in a small amount.
