Civet Propanoate, also known as p-Cresyl Pivalate, is a fragrance ingredient with warm animalic and musky facets. Its scent evokes intimacy and depth, making it suitable for compositions seeking a soft animalic note with distinctive character.

In perfumery, it can add an accent to musk or amber bases and floral accords with an animalic dimension. Start with a small amount during evaluation to find the right balance between warmth and animalic character in the formula.
