About this material
Cedramber is a refined expression of modern perfumery—an elegant, high-impact ingredient prized for its exquisite, enveloping aroma.
Derived from natural inspirations, it reveals a beautifully balanced profile of warm, woody notes, delivering both depth and radiance to fine fragrance compositions and personal care creations alike.
Renowned among perfumers for its versatility, Cedramber offers a sophisticated and cost-effective alternative to synthetic ambergris, imparting a rich, long-lasting sensuality that enhances and anchors complex accords.
Its smooth, ambery-woody character blends seamlessly with complementary materials such as Vertofix, Ambroxan, and Fixateur 505 E, amplifying diffusion and longevity.
Particularly valued as a fixative, it excels in stabilising and elevating delicate floral aldehydic notes.
It harmonises beautifully with ingredients such as Undecylenic Aldehyde, Cyclamen Aldehyde, Lyral, and Lilial, lending structure, warmth, and persistence to luminous floral compositions.
A staple in contemporary fragrance design, Cedramber embodies both luxury and performance—an essential ingredient for perfumers seeking to craft enduring, captivating scents.
Embrace the allure of Cedramber and experience its distinctive, velvety essence today.

Creative ideas to explore
Creative directions, not tested formulas.
Woods in daylight
With bergamot and a crisp citrus openingExplore a spare wood structure with citrus providing the opening contrast. Compare a brighter version with the wood reference and follow how the outline changes, keeping the later impression as important as the first moment.
A softer grain
With sandalwood and a musk directionSet the woody material beside a softer wood reference, then compare a restrained musk variation. Decide whether your concept needs creamy texture, dry definition or more space between its parts before expanding the accord.
Petals on timber
With rose and a clear floral accordTry a flower-and-wood study in which both subjects remain recognisable. Compare the floral reference with the woody variation through the evaluation, noting whether the wood forms a useful backdrop or becomes the centre of the idea.

An SDS provides information about the material supplied; it does not replace an assessment of the safety or compliance of a finished formulation.
Please note that supplementary documentation—including, but not limited to, IFRA Certificates, Certificates of Analysis (CoA), Allergen Declarations, and other regulatory or compositional data—may not be available for all products. Refer to the "Supplementary Documentation" tab to check current availability. If the tab is not present, no supplementary documents are available for the material.
Customers intending to use materials in cosmetic applications, including for the preparation of a Cosmetic Product Safety Report (CPSR) under UK and EU Cosmetics Regulations, must contact us prior to purchase to confirm the availability and suitability of any required documentation where it is not explicitly stated.

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. Customers must assess their complete formulation and intended use.
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.
Producer identity, detailed sourcing and processing information are not disclosed beyond the information published in the product listing.
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.
Nothing in this information excludes or restricts liability or statutory rights that cannot lawfully be excluded or restricted.

Anis Dadou –
My favourite wood-amber. Very dry woody, without the ‘screechy-ness’ (so called) experienced with modern wood-amber-super-ambers like Ambrocenide. Though not as diffusive or multifaceted as those (which often have background soft vanilla like elements). Cedramber is decidedly dry wood, ambroxan without the sweetness
