About this material

Veramoss is a quintessential premium oakmoss substitute, engineered to deliver the timeless elegance of oakmoss with modern stability and regulatory compliance.

It’s sophisticated mossy‑wood bouquet evokes an enchanted forest floor — rich, earthy, and nuanced, yet impeccably refined.

Crafted by International Flavours & Fragrances (IFF), Veramoss bridges heritage and innovation, offering perfumers a reliable, vegan‑suitable, and biodegradable alternative to natural oakmoss without compromising olfactory depth.

It elevates compositions with seamless longevity, lending structure and character that luxury fragrances demand.

Whether anchoring a classic chypre or enriching an avant‑garde woody, Veramoss is an indispensable tool for signature perfumery — adding richness, depth, and enduring allure to every creation.

A cornerstone fixative and depth note in chypre, fougère, woody, amber, and earthy accords; exceptional for anchoring both modern luxury and classic blends.

Compared to Evernyl by Givaudan, Veramoss by IFF offers a richer, more pronounced mossy character, evoking the earthy, phenolic nuances of a forest floor.

Harmonises with woods, resins, musks, ambers, and florals.

Also used in niche soap and candle perfumery.

Reference data checked 2026-10-27.

This molecular reference matches the catalogue’s recorded CAS and formula. It does not confirm the supplied grade, purity, stereochemistry, isomer proportions, composition, impurities or unlisted constituents.

Fragrance allergen reference

Generic regulatory reference only. This is not a supplier allergen declaration, measured composition, allergen-free claim or finished-product labelling assessment.

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.

European Union / Northern Ireland

No direct listed-entry CAS match in this jurisdiction’s held reference set. This does not mean the material is allergen-free. Constituents, grouped entries and natural-material composition may require further review.

Finished-cosmetic declaration thresholds: greater than 0.001% leave-on; greater than 0.01% rinse-off. Apply the current target-market rules to the actual complete formulation; no concentration is inferred here.

Documentation Supply Policy

IFRA 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.

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.

IFRA source overview · Individual IFRA Standards and supplementary documentation

Supplier certificates and private documents are separate evidence. Their availability does not determine whether this generic guide is shown. This is a dated local reference, not a live regulatory feed.

Creative ideas to explore

Creative directions, not tested formulas.

Garden after rain

With leafy and root-like directions

Explore an earthy garden sketch by pairing the listed character with a green leaf or root direction. Keep those two options separate at first so you can distinguish a fresh soil idea from a denser, darker one.

Roots and timber

With dry and soft wood contrasts

Build an earthy wood study around a deliberately simple wood accord. Compare a dry outline with a smoother variation, noting which makes the material’s character easier to recognise and which turns the sketch into something new.

Rose in the ground

With a familiar rose accord

Set the earthy material against a clear rose reference for a flower-and-soil concept. Evaluate the contrast before adding sweetness or spice; the aim is to decide whether the earthy accent enriches your imagined scene.

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.
