What it smells like

Synthetic Civet delivers a complex animalic aroma that feels warm and slightly sharp. It combines a deep, leathery musk with a honeyed, almost sweet undertone, and a faint, almost stinging opening reminiscent of faecal nuance. Perfumers use it in very small amounts to add depth and a subtle animalic warmth that underpins woods, ambers, or floral accords without overt pungency.

Synthetic Civet is listed in 2 perfumes in this directory. It is listed as a base note.
