About this material
Cashmeran Velvet by International Flavors & Fragrances (IFF) is a masterful synthetic fragrance ingredient that embodies the art of modern perfumery.
Crafted to enrich compositions with luxuriant depth and sensual warmth, it bridges rich amber, woody and musk families in a way that feels both contemporary and timeless.
At first impression, Cashmeran Velvet delivers a bold yet velvety onset — a fusion of spicy woody accords that melt into a sumptuous musk base.
Its sophisticated character is perfect for high‑end perfumes that demand complexity without overpowering; it enhances floral bouquets, enriches ambers and supports rich oriental trails with unmatched subtlety.
Designed for the discerning perfumer and luxury fragrance house, this ingredient fosters compositions that are deep, sensual and enduring.
Powerful and expansive — delivering a strong, luxurious presence with exceptional diffusion in compositions.
A premium ingredient for fine perfumery, luxury eau de parfums, exclusives and artistic blends.
Ideal as a base or heart enhancer in woody, amber, musk or floral compositions.
Long‑lasting and persistent — supporting rich dry‑downs and sustained scent trails.
Whether you’re creating a signature scent or elevating an artisanal blend, Cashmeran Velvet offers an intoxicating foundation that whispers elegance and luxury.
Compared to Cashmeran:
Cashmeran® by IFF is one of perfumery’s most iconic synthetic building blocks — known for its multi‑dimensional woody‑musk‑amber aura, complex depth, and signature “cashmere‑like” texture that adds personality and richness to fragrances.
Cashmeran® Velvet refines that core DNA, creating a smoother, rounder and more luxurious experience that works beautifully as a foundation for elegant compositions — especially in fine EDPs and luxury blends where sophistication and soft diffusion are priorities.
In short: Cashmeran Velvet elevates the original Cashmeran’s warmth and smoothness, offering a more refined backbone for premium perfumes.

Documentation Supply PolicyIFRA formulation guide
Generic reference only — not an IFRA certificate, compliance decision or use recommendation. The Responsible Person and qualified safety assessor must assess the actual finished formula using current applicable IFRA Standards, supplementary documentation where available and the CPSR.
Raw-material reference based on recorded CAS numbers. A CAS match identifies a reference entry; it does not verify the supplied grade, composition, purity or finished-product compliance. Naturals, bases and mixtures require composition review.
Source: 51st Amendment overview, held source checked 2026-10-21. Bundle 2026-10-27. Individual Standards prevail over the overview.
No direct IFRA overview entry matched the recorded CAS in this held dataset. This does not mean unrestricted use, absence of relevant Standards or compliance. Constituent restrictions may still apply.

Creative ideas to explore
Creative directions, not tested formulas.
A petal backdrop
With rose and a simple floral accordExplore the musk material as a setting for a familiar flower. Compare the flower alone and the musk variation through the evaluation, focusing on the texture you perceive and whether the flower remains distinct against its new backdrop.
Quiet woods
With sandalwood and transparent woodsBuild a spare wood-and-musk study with only a few moving parts. Compare soft and dry wood directions separately, then choose the combination whose balance feels closest to your intended outline instead of adding every appealing note.
Clean brightness
With bergamot and an airy floral ideaTry a brighter musk direction with citrus as the opening contrast. Assess it beside a matching reference without the citrus, noting how the clean, floral or woody aspects you actually perceive develop over the evaluation.

Document scope and limitations
The supplementary documents currently available for this material are identified in this tab. Availability varies between materials.
Batch-specific certificates, analytical results and additional technical data are not guaranteed. They are supplied only where their availability is expressly confirmed in this tab or separately confirmed by us in writing.
Where provided, supplier IFRA documentation does not replace a comprehensive safety assessment or constitute approval of a finished formulation. Customers must consider their complete formulation and intended application.
Any linked IFRA standard is provided for reference and is not a batch-specific specification or analytical certificate for the material supplied.
Do not assume that documentation confirms a particular batch, residual constituent level, manufacturing process or analytical result unless it expressly states this.
The same limitations apply to allergen declarations, Certificates of Analysis (CoAs), technical data sheets, specifications, and other regulatory, analytical or compositional documents. These documents provide information only within their stated scope; they do not replace a comprehensive safety assessment or constitute approval of a finished formulation, nor do they guarantee suitability for a particular application.

Customer responsibility
These limitations apply to reliance on all documentation supplied, including IFRA information, allergen declarations, Certificates of Analysis (CoAs), technical data sheets, specifications and other supporting documents.
Perfume Extract is solely a reseller of this product and is not an agent, official distributor, or affiliated in any way with the manufacturer.
Customers are responsible for determining whether the material and available documentation meet their requirements before purchase, and for assessing the safety and compliance of their finished products.
We do not provide formulation instructions, formulation consultancy or confirmation of suitability at a particular concentration or for a particular application.

Please read our Documentation Supply Policy alongside the product specification and available documentation.
Synonyms, alternative names, CAS/EC references, botanical names, manufacturer references and external links may describe a substance or material family generally. They should not, on their own, be taken as confirmation of the supplied material’s producer, geographical origin, manufacturing process, grade, purity, constituent levels or batch characteristics.
In particular, a synonym or reference must not be used to infer that a material is free from a particular constituent, meets a numerical specification, or is suitable for a particular application or concentration.
IFRA information, allergen declarations, Certificates of Analysis (CoAs), technical data sheets and other supporting documents apply only within their expressly stated scope. A general specification or reference document is not a batch-specific analytical result unless it expressly identifies the relevant batch.
If information appears inconsistent, or a particular characteristic is essential to your purchase, contact us for written clarification before ordering. Do not resolve discrepancies by assuming that a synonym, external reference or document for another grade applies to the material supplied.
We do not confirm characteristics beyond those expressly supported by the applicable product specification or our written confirmation. Customers remain responsible for assessing their complete formulation and intended application.

Daljit Banga (verified owner) –
Velvet is smoother than regular Cashmeran, there isn’t that sharp top bite as you get from the regular. Definitely slightly more richer. Me personally prefer the regular variant of Cashmeran. The only advantage is semi solid – so only a gentle warming is needed.
