Timbersilk
A Refined Evolution of Modern Woods
Elevate your compositions with Timbersilk by IFF, a sophisticated and high-impact reinterpretation of the iconic Iso E Super.
Designed for perfumers seeking both elegance and diffusion, Timbersilk offers a smoother, more radiant woody profile with enhanced presence and clarity.
At the heart of its distinction lies a significantly higher concentration of the prized gamma isomer—15% compared to the 8% typically found in Iso E Super.
This enriched composition delivers a more vibrant, diffusive, and long-lasting olfactory effect, wrapping fragrances in a soft yet unmistakable aura of warm, velvety wood.
Expertly refined with additional high-impact materials, Timbersilk reveals a polished character that is simultaneously airy and substantial.
Its texture is silky and enveloping, lending a contemporary sophistication to both minimalist accords and complex blends alike.
Best experienced when properly diluted or integrated into a formulation, Timbersilk enhances the overall odour quality of a wide range of fragrance styles—from fresh and transparent compositions to deep, ambery creations.
It acts as both a subtle amplifier and a unifying backbone, bringing harmony and lift to your blends.
For those seeking even greater intensity, explore higher-impact variations such as Sylvamber
A modern essential for perfumers who demand refinement, diffusion, and lasting impression.
