What does Ambergris T Oliffac smell like?
PerfumersWorld list it as ambergris, sweet, dry, amber, woody, mossy, with an odour life of 400 hours on the smelling strip and a base-note placement; suppliers describe a fumey, extremely radiant ambroxan-type dryness with an animalic, old-wood edge. IFF built it as a direct replacement for natural ambergris tincture, roughly equivalent to a 5 to 10 percent tincture and therefore stronger than most tinctures, and it contains no animal extract. In a formula it is the dry ambergris floor that stretches a base out and adds skin-radiance without sweetening it. A compounded base, so no single CAS.

What is Ambergris T Oliffac made of?
What the supplier DECLARES, not the whole formula. A base is a blend somebody else made: an IFRA conformity certificate and an allergen declaration list the restricted and declarable substances only, so these shares add up to a few percent and the remainder stays with the house. PerfuMate counts exactly what is listed here and claims nothing about the rest.
