Luebke, William tgsc, (1989)“Amber ambergris woody old wood sweet musty gourmand”
PerfumersWorld“Castoreum balsamic amber fruity tobacco rich sweet herbaceous-balsamic blends-well-with - ISO-e-super kephalis patchouli musk”
Pell Wall Perfumes“Sweet-resinous, old wood, amber, ambergris, dry this almost solid, sticky resinoid is produced from cistus ladaniferus gum-resin. invaluable in many types of fragrance especially amber, incense and chypre types it contains a material similar in odour to that present in ambergris. like most absolutes, this is an expensive product and for this and other reasons several materials are commonly used alongside it, including ambrofix, copaiba balsam, hexyl acetate, vertofix and vertenex.”
