Cashmeran Velvet™ (IFF)
Impact
Working dilution
What does Cashmeran Velvet smell like?
IFF publishes it as a diffusive spicy, woody ambery note with great rounding and smoothing properties, and suppliers reselling it describe an extremely rich musk that is stronger and spicier than Cashmeran itself. In a formula it behaves less like a note and more like a finishing agent: it rounds off edges between woods, ambers and musks, adds diffusion and a plush warm body to a drydown, and holds a structure together at very low dose. IFF lists it as a mixture rather than a single molecule, so it carries no CAS of its own; it is sold diluted (one supplier at thirty percent in DPG) because it is potent enough that neat handling is impractical.

What is Cashmeran Velvet 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.
