As for containing Dicetyl

Nature's falvorings may have been referring to natual Dicetyl which is a by product of fermentation. This is a grey area.
See Wikopedia below. I'll be contacting Nature's flavors about Natural Dicetyl in the organic flavorings because from what I'm reading it's not something that you want to be vaporizing.
Diacetyl is produced by dehydrogenation of 2,3-butanediol. Acetoin is an intermediate.[2] It arises naturally as a byproduct of fermentation.

Article: Diacetyl - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In some fermentative bacteria, it is formed from by thiamine pyrophosphate-mediated condensation of pyruvate and acetyl CoA.[3] Sour (cultured) cream, cultured buttermilk, and cultured butter are produced by inoculating pasteurized cream or milk with a lactic starter culture, churning (agitating) and holding the milk until a desired pH drop (or increase in acidity) is attained. Cultured cream, cultured butter, and cultured buttermilk owe their tart flavour to lactic acid bacteria and their buttery aroma and taste to diacetyl.[4]
