About Civet (10% in DPG)

Civet (10% in DPG) is a pre-diluted version of the classic animalic fixative, recreated using a synthetic alternative to natural civet. Known for its deep, warm, sensual scent, this powerful material adds floral volume, longevity, and musk-like sensuality to perfumes. In its diluted form, Civet transforms from sharp and pungent to a soft, creamy warmth that lingers in the base.

Used sparingly, Civet enhances white florals, musky orientals, leather, and amber compositions, helping them feel more alive, sultry, and elegant. This 10% dilution in DPG (Dipropylene Glycol) makes it easy to blend into attars, roll-ons, incense bases, and solid perfumes.
