Accord
Animalic
6 fragrances with this accord
Family Musky & powdery
Musk, powder, cleanliness, “skin after a shower” — not a family in the article, but a notable group in the catalogue.
The animalic accord is a warm, “animal” sensuality: civet, castoreum, leather accord, cumin, ambrette, a touch of oud. Modern perfumery recreates these notes with synthetic substitutes, without using animals.
In small doses they make a fragrance alive, warm and bold, adding depth to flowers and leather. It is the touch by which classic and niche masterpieces are recognised.
